Attack of the Giant Pumpkin

Flee for your lives! The A-Pumpki-Lypse is coming! Leave no pumpkin pies or lattes out in the open! At the very least, pull over and hope the damn thing doesn't crush the hood of your car!

Drivers and pedestrians alike got a bit of a shakeup in Peoria, Arizona, when a 25-foot inflatable pumpkin broke loose from its display at the city's "Monster Bash." High winds sent the big beast rolling down a street. It took the event's promoter 40 minutes to track it down. 40 minutes!  Because it was camouflaged in with all the other 25-foot inflatable orange objects in Peoria?

Anyway, luckily a couple of street lights and the renegade pumpkin were the only things that needed a few repairs.

Too bad the Monster Bash promoter's name isn't Charlie Brown. That would have made it perfect!  DB
