In 1986 Tim Sweeney of Ambler, PA grew a 98lb pumpkin. The pumpkin story made the front page of the local newspaper, The Ambler Gazette. His father, Peter Sweeney wrote the article entitled "Ambler Boy Shows That Hard Work Does Pay Off". It explained the experiment put on by the father-son pumkin growers. Peter grew a pumpkin in the same garden that Tim grew his. Tim planted his in a nice area, with fresh rich soil. He watered, and cared for his pumpkin everyday, and even spoke to it. Peter just through his pumkin seed in an uncared for part of the garden. He watered it and cared for it when he felt like it, but not near as much as his son. Tim's pumkin grew to a healthy, and strong 98lb pumkin. Peter's pumkin was a pile of mush.
