![Larry Masters, of East Nassau, NY, wears his 13th place ribbon (1166 pounds) after the 38th All New England Giant Pumpkin Weigh-Off at the Topsfield Fair in Topsfield, Massachusetts, USA, on Fri., Sept. 30, 2022. Competitors grow huge pumpkins, many over 1000 pounds and some over 2000 pounds, to compete against growers for the largest pumpkin. This year, the top prize went to Jamie Graham, of Tyngsborough, Mass., whose pumpkin weighed in at 2,480 pounds, which beat the fair's previous record, set in 2019, of 2,294.5 pounds. Masters was given the 13th place ribbon, but the official record has him at 12th place. Masters said that he is a first-time pumpkin grower. "I've only been growing 5 months," he said. "The whole ride here [from New York state] was like I was a movie star. Everyone was beeping and honking," he said, describing the reaction to people seeing his giant pumpkin in the back of a trailer behind his truck. "It puts a smile on everybody's face!"](https://m.psecn.photoshelter.com/img-get/I0000CtQvhP2ar5E/t/200/I0000CtQvhP2ar5E.jpg)
