Last year, Harry set the world record for growing the biggest pumpkin. How big was it?It was 914 pounds! Measured with a tape, it was 14 feet around its middle. It took nearly fifteen people to move it. And, if you carved it out, it was big enough for three people to get inside. Harry laughed and said, " You could make nearly 1, 000 pumpkin pies with this pumpkin. " It takes a lot of work to grow a pumpkin like this one. But it's Harry's hobby and he loves it.

How much did Harry win at the competition?He took home a cheque for $15, 000. His friends aren't laughing at his hobby now.
