Jay Richard Wins His 1st UGPG Weigh-off!
The large crowd cheered as Jay Richard of Worland, Wyoming pulled out an exciting win in the first ever Center Street Weigh-Off. It was a great win for Jay after tying for 2nd place at last year's weigh-off at Hee Haw Farms. His pumpkin tipped the scales at 1784 pounds!
Jay's pumpkin, grown from the 900 Corbin seed, weighed nearly 5% over estimate. Jay has been attending UGPG weigh-offs in Utah since 2021. Congratulations to Jay on a successful pumpkin season! Way to Go!
