Usually, farmers in Oak County just grow one pumpkin for the largest pumpkin in the largest pumpkin contest, but for some reason, all of the farmers went crazy this year and used all of their fields to grow as many large pumpkins as they could.
They didn’t plant anything else.
No wheat. No corn. No soybeans.
Just pumpkins.
So, there was nothing to send to market or the grain elevators. The banks foreclosed on all the farms.
The worst thing is, those super-sized giant pumpkins are inedible. Totally disgusting.
We ended up smashing the windows of the bank with them.
