Off the top of my head, the 1332 Werner stands out as well. Just imagine how that pumpkin stood out among the plant canopy!

im not sure but i am kinda partial to those 1068 1173 1225 and 500 offspring that showed up in warren ri a couple weeks ago
more orange would have been nice but when your growing for competition i always look for size potential first, then i can always add some color when polinating

Martin Reiss' 1233.5 (Mr. Orange) would be my pick. Big, round and orange.

My favorite pumpkin is Larry's 1469 lb pumpkin. My reasoning is that I am trying, though I probably not going to ever suceed, to grow the largest pumpkin that I possibly can. This growing season all my family and neighbors were commenting on the size (only 359 lbs.) and not that it was orange. I mean neighbors were bringing their grandchildren to sit on my "big" pumpkin and get their pictures taken, not my "orange" pumpkin. My second favorite is our pumpkin. Not big by any standards but sure made everyone happy that saw it. Besides it is the size that got my oldest son interested in gardens again.

I vote for the 1008.5 Reiss. I like the shape and color on it even more than the 1233.5, though it wasn't so large. The high shoulders make for a really good display pumpkin.
