For David Frerichs, and pumpkin growers across the globe, this is the year they have been waiting for. History is being made.
This year growers get to see a pumpkin that makes the one most people put on their doorstep for Halloween, look like a pomegranate seed. This years legendary pumpkin even dwarfs the massive 1,600-pound giants that typically win pumpkin growing contests. It is so large most growers would think the poundage was not possible.
"It would just implode," said Frerichs. "That the shell of the pumpkin, the ribs inside, wouldn't be strong enough to hold that weight."

Sour grapes.The poundage may not appear possible,but remember;the structure of the pumpkin grew along with the rest of it,allowing it to accomodate the excessive weight.Just wait.In a couple of years this record will be broken.
