Any Dr. Hook fans out there? The Windsor Pumpkin Festival Committee has confirmed a booking as a fundraiser for the old time rock star "Dr. Hook" this coming June. We are looking for a "pumpkin theme" name to use for radio & newspaper promotion purposes. Any ideas come to mind?

"Gonna see my smilin face, on the cover of HTGGP III" !
"Gonna see my giant pumpkin, on the cover of the Rolling Stone!"

"Freakin at the Windsor Weigh-off!"

( needs more work!)

perhaps "gonna see my A.G. on the cover of the rolling stone!"
or maybe " it weighed 16 only 16, and i was too bummed to know"
this could be a fun thread

Wow. You guys are a hoot! Maybe we can get Dr. Hook to change his lyrics and sub them with your suggestions. If only Dr. Hook knew we have changed his claim to fame with the association of giant pumpkins. Keep the lyrics coming, I haven't determined a theme yet although, I like "Dr. Hook Freakin at the Windsor Weigh-off". Too bad he's coming in June and not the fall, then we could really open his eyes to what a BIG pumpkin really look like. I wonder what Sylvia's Mother would say.

Just a suggestion if you're gonna parody Sylvia...
Sylvia’s mother said Sylvia’s pumpkin is bigger than all gourds before
Sylvia’s mother said Sylvia’s pumpkin is too big to roll through the door
Sylvia’s mother said this Giant Pumpkin just might crash straight through the floor
And The Pumpkin Judge said “three pounds over!”, for a new world.. record.. Pumpkiiiiin..

Thanks Mr. Pumpkin Judge, hope folks won’t hold a grudge, I’ve grown for quite a little while. You see Mr. Pumpkin judge, this pumpkin is just like my chiiiiiild
