Punkin Chunkin VT Meeting-Nov 2, 2007

by besbel - last update: Nov 5, 2007

Punkin Chunkin is a recent celebration (it is organized from ten to fifteen years so far), consisting in firing pumpkins with cannons built up by the competitor. The winner is the one who fires a pumpkin the farthest.
Look to the Emancipator!
Cannons in the competition showed how creative contestants could be regarding their cannons. You can find them in different shapes, names, sizes and colors...
Fly away....
The cannon in the precise instant of firing a pumpkin! OK, the pumpking is the very, very, very diminute point seen above the smoke....
