It's Not Thanksgiving Without Punkin Chunkin!

Forget the parade! Punkin Chunkin is America’s newest Thanksgiving pastime!
It’s time for the Discovery Channel’s 2011 Punkin Chunkin competition! For those of you who have not been introduced to this amazing “sport,” you should know Chunkin is an annual competition in which people use various mechanical devices — think giant slingshot-type contraptions — to toss pumpkins as far as they can.
In other words, it’s 100% classy!
Watch the promo (above) and then watch the whole show with with your family Thanksgiving night at 8 p.m., on the Discovery and Science Channel!
