During the last weekend in October, Floydada, Texas is the place to be. This small town happens to be the Pumpkin Capitol of the US. Pumpkins outnumber the residents by 200 to 1, and so the folks here celebrate the harvest with a town fair called "Pumpkin Days". You can fulfill your pumpkin curiosity with the demonstration of the hundreds of pumpkin uses. You can purchase pumpkins and pumpkin goodies all over the small town. There are jack o'lantern carving events and fun for the whole family. You may even see the Great Pumpkin, but don't tell Linus.
