Annual Pumpkin-Launching Competition is Good Fall Fun

Each season has its share of time-of-year-appropriate activities to be enjoyed by the masses. Winter has skiing and snowboarding, with spring comes the allure of gardening (or cleaning, if that's your bag), and come summertime, everyone heads to the beach. Normal, run-of-the-mill fall activities include hayrides, pumpkin-picking and consuming massive amounts of cider. Yawn. While I really do love all those things, they pale in comparison with the experience of the annual World Championship Punkin Chunkin in Bridgeville, Del.
