The 2014 Great Utica Pumpkin Carve will take place October 9th – 11th 5PM - 9PM. Here's some more details on the event.

Not sure what pumpkins ever did to this guy, but he calls himself 'Hickok 45' and has apparently invented a myriad of ways of dispatching his unassuming, unarmed and as yet faceless orange foes.

Like it or not, fall is here, (pretty much, let's not get technical about it, okay?). We all know what that means -- hot apple cider, digging out your sweaters from the back of the closet, and people going on and on about how much they love pumpkin spice lattes.

We’re self-proclaimed Halloween geeks. But honestly, how can you not be? There are so many ways to celebrate the holiday that by the time October 31st rolls around, our entire lives are defined by creepy stuff and ridiculous garb. Our pets aren’t big fans of the festive takeover, but that’s never stopped us from dressing them up as a turkey dog!

When we carve pumpkins, we generally use a knife, but they must do things a little differently in the South. For example, Tennessee resident and YouTuber Hickok45 carves his pumpkin with a Colt 1911 handgun. Why, you may ask? Because using anything else would just be plain silly.

Most of us like to carve our pumpkis early. Mabe you are worried that it wont last until Halloween. When selecting your Halloween Pumpkin just follow theese simple tips.
