Overpromoted, overrated, overcrowded, overpriced
and still hugely popular -- The Half Moon Bay Pumpkin Festival. HMB is dubbed
the "Pumpkin Capital of the World".
The festival starts with a pumpkin weigh-off,
followed by a parade. The winning pumpkin this year: 1016 lbs! The 1st prize
is $5 / lb for the winner.
