Rage Pumpkins

Are you looking for a fall activity to help get out all your rage?

Then you definitely need to try rage pumpkins!

It’s exactly what it sounds like, you take all your rage out on a pumpkin! Big, small, huge, whatever size pumpkin and you just hit it with whatever you can find!

I’d recommend doing this on a Friday evening. All the pent up rage from the week, you just take it out on the pumpkin.

What You’ll Need

Pumpkin(s)
- I recommend going to your local Aldi or grocery store, do not go to a pumpkin patch. You will be destroying them, so do not pay a lot of money.
Eye Protection
- Protective Safety Goggles are what I recommend. They secure to your head and do not fall off when you are sweating. You can pick these up at Tractor Supply or any hardware store
- Safety Glasses are another option we used. They protect your eyes, however they do start to slip when you start sweating
- Swim Goggles are an option as well. They however do not cover your forehead and are more restrictive on your head.
Blunt Force Object
- Hammer a hammer is great for both sides, you can hit the pumpkin with the face or the claw. I would recommend buying one with a rubber grip
- Baseball Bat is great for those who are really looking to get rage out! I would not recommend a wooden baseball bat, a metal one would work the best.

WARNINGS

Make sure to wear eye protection! Little chunks of pumpkin will fly everywhere.
Be careful with your blunt force object, pumpkins are round and they move! You could hit the ground, your foot, or a hand
If you are doing this in a group space yourself out, remember PUMPKINS ARE ROUND and they do move!
Do your rage pumpkins in an area that can easily be cleaned up! Remember you’ll beat this thing to a crisp, and there are a lot of guts in a pumpkin.
Do this outside, there will be a lot of mess!
DO NOT EAT YOUR PUMPKIN SEEDS! Remember you are hitting this pumpkin outside, with a blunt force object, there will be germs, especially if you are in the grass!!

Once you are finished with desecrating your pumpkin I recommend moving the pieces to an area where the deer and other animals can easily eat the insides. This is a great treat for deer, ours absolutely devoured all four of our rage pumpkins.
