What do you do with that leftover jack-o-lantern from Halloween?
Well, the folks at Rock Ranch in The Rock, Georgia, have come up with a local answer that could be easily deployed by other ranches nationwide: National Pumpkin Destruction Day. People bring their wilting jack-o-lanterns to the ranch (or use the pumpkin drop-off). Then, on the first Saturday of November, the fun begins!
How many ways can you smash a pumpkin? Rock Ranch explores them all, from dropping them from planes and cranes to running over them with monster trucks and shooting them from cannons. They're used as bowling balls, darts, and fun. Every pumpkin sacrificed is then turned into compost and organic fertilizer, avoiding a useless death in a garbage dump. The cycle of life continues, and the attendees are entertained!
