Have you ever squashed a pumpkin? Have you wanted to hurl one or stomp on one after Halloween was over? At Cox Farms in Centreville, Virginia, the grand finale of the season is Pumpkin Madness Days, November 5-6, 2011, when pumpkins meet their fate by being squished, hurled, smashed, thrown, and dropped. Visitors can also enjoy all of the usual attractions at the fall festival including hayrides, giant slides, farm animals and their babies, rope swings, live entertainment and the Cornundrum. Pumpkin Madness visitors are encouraged to bring their "used" jack-o-lanterns with them for smashing fun. Methods of pumpkin recycling include: the Pumpkin Catapult which sends the pumpkins flying all the way to the farm pond; Pumpkin High Drop; Pumpkin Squisher; Pumpkin Bowling; Pumpkin Toss; and Wall of Spikes. See Photos of Pumpkin Madness Days.
