I know this is late but I was struggeling with technical problems trying to upload the results to the gpc page and hope to get the problem fixed within the next days.

There were 39 entries total plus another two exh.

So here goes the result for the top 10 of the first GPC sanctioned Austrian weigh off (lbs):

1. Thomas Riegebauer 683.4
2. Horst Jöbstl 670.2
3. Gerhard Scharf 648.1*

4. Franz Mayrhofer 640.4
5. Maria Scharf 605.1
6. Erich Putz 584.2
7. Peter Woltan 524.7
8. Christian Jöbstl 512.5
9. Franz Weinzierl 500.4
10. Andreas Pühringer 480.6

More bp.com members:

13. Christoph Schieder (Chris Austria) 429.9
19. Josef Stocker (Hawakuk) 362.5

Congratulations to all growers, especially to 15 year old Thomas Riegebauer for not only dominating in a super exciting and close weigh off but also for growing the first pumpkin close to the 1000 lbs mark in Austria with a 968.9 lbs pumpkin off the 523 Olsen. It unfortunately was dmg due to a small blossom end split. The victory was well earned. My hat is off to this young grower and to all other growers who entered a fruit as well.
