🎃 Oh my gourd!

North Carolina traffic came to a halt when a 30-foot inflatable pumpkin decided it was done being a lawn decoration.

Strong winds sent the giant jack-o’-lantern tumbling down a road like a runaway Thanksgiving parade balloon. An Uber driver even pulled over to help the owners catch it, because the gig economy also covers pumpkin wrangling.

The orange fugitive was eventually captured and returned to its farm, where it’s now tied down to two tractors. Yep. Two tractors. Somebody get this thing an ankle monitor.

Watch it unfold here. How do you fix a cracked pumpkin? With a pumpkin patch.
