UK lad grows 700 pound pumpkin by feeding it beer!:
A British school boy claims to have grown the largest pumpkin in the country, by nurturing it on beer. According to The Sun, Joe Hallam, 13, has claimed that he has grown a record 700 pound pumpkin by feeding it beer. "A pint a day really helps its size," Hallam was quoted as saying. He has now reportedly hired a crane to lift it from his garden for a show.

#1  It works with people too... I reckon it's called "beerguts"... hummm, beer...

#2  How big is that in stone? Or Kilograms?

There was a report in California yesterday some guy had a 1,000 pound pumpkin. I think you need radiation and steroids to get one that big, and you gotta be very careful not to make it mad.

#3  Don't give the pumpkin any more than a pint a day or...

#4  Don't laugh! Organic gardening books recommend beer as a substitute for some chemical fertilizers!

#5  LOL Dar! Wasn't the picture from last year?
