Re: Engineers and Pumpkins

The World Championship Punkin' Chunkin' (based right here in Delaware) is still my favorite.

For those not in the know.... the competition has a few different types of Chunkers.
-Air Cannons
-Centrifugal
-Catapults
-Trebuchets
-Human Powered
-Torsion

Teams are going for distance.
Pumpkins that disintegrate before leaving the barrel do not count.
