Just announced today: Nov 4-6, in the ass-end of Delaware the World Championship of [Punkin Chunkin](https://www.punkinchunkin.com/) returns!  
If you don’t know what Punkin’ Chunkin is all about, it’s been covered on Discovery channel (Mythbusters), Science channel, Nat Geo channel or just watch [one of the many videos online](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dmSyrGsqmg8).  
Hint: They can launch them _well over_ ¾ of a mile!
