Art Johnston and John Butlers WR long gourd 2009.
This is "Hair-ee". Grown in 2009. When I moved to Port Lambton in 2003 I had 1 trick-or-treater the first year. Once word got around about the pumpkins I'd get 200+. A lot of them didn't come for the treats, just to get their picture taken on the pumpkin.
