As a complete rookie to this big pumpkin business, I grew a Lowes AG that produced a few ~100+ boats. Obviously I won't be in any weigh offs, but a local farm here is also having an ugly\goofy shape competition.

From any one with experience with these sorts of events, does my pumpkin have what it takes to classify as ugly enough to place? I ask because there is also an Ozark catch and release fishing tourney the same day I'd enter instead. It would be nice to have an "ugly" award at the least to show for all this summers work. Please see pic below.

That picture does know justice on her shape... she is only 10 inches tall but about 2.5 feet long like a pancake, It does have nice color though.

What if I glue some moles to her?

The color will hold you back from winning a ugly contest.
