HALF MOON BAY, Calif.—Immense pumpkins waited in trucks and on trailers for their turn at the scale, with only the heaviest to be declared the champion.

The 47th annual Safeway World Championship Pumpkin Weigh-Off was held at Long Branch Saloon & Farms in Half Moon Bay, California, on Oct. 12. Due to the CCP virus, the event wasn’t open to the public this year, but was live-streamed.
