GeekStreak 0 #1 June 4, 2001 The weekend of my first jump the DZ was having a marshmallow drop fund-raiser for the local SPCA. You buy a numbered marshmallow and they throw 'em out of a plane. The closest to the peas wins the money.Besides marshmallows and jumpers, what other kinds of strange things get tossed from planes?Inquiring minds need to know!1111,GeekStreak Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mouth 0 #2 June 4, 2001 Last October they had a Pumpkin Chunking contest at Thomaston. They didn't do it this year 'cause the cesna was broken and the otter was busy people chunkin'. Wish I could have seen it but that was before my time... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mouth 0 #4 June 4, 2001 Actually I think they aimed for an open area just on the other side of the runway. I'm sure it was a spectacular sight. Wonder if any pumpkins sprouted from the area??? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
