  • John Barenie, from Griffith, Ind., describes growing record setting giant pumpkins as a waiting game. "You never really know what you are going to get until you pick it," he says. Barenie has been growing big pumpkins since 1999, winning titles at county fairs as well as the Indiana State Fair. His best pumpkin weighed in at 1321. 5 pounds and he has several in the 700 to 1000 pound range this year. When he is done with the competitions his family carves up the pumpkins for a giant lighting display at Halloween. "I don't carve them,"  Barenie says, "I just grow 'em."
