Sanford ME GPC Weigh-off 9/17/10.
An Exhibit pumper was brought in by Al Berard, you can see the butt crack between the ribs.
They weighed it last I think it was to disperse the crowd.
After they got it on the scale, you could see liquid seeping out.
The lifting crew scrambled to back to it's skid before the bottom let loose. Looked like someone was pouring liquid out the bottom of the fruit, with a hose, when they lifted it from the scale to the skid.
And what a stench, you could tell someone used a lot of fish emulsion this season.
