Pumpkins here are ones we picked yesterday and lots & lots more are waiting for a new home! The Koltiska Pumpkin Patch Is located at 120 Cat Creek Rd.-Sheridan Wy. Go East on Fifth St past the Information center and soon you will see a large orange sign. Then follow the signs for about 6 miles. We have info for you:
Pumpkin Patch opens on Wed. Sept. 15th at 3:00pm. Here is our schedule and hours for this year:
Opening Day Wed. Sept. 15th - Last Day Sun. Oct.10th.

BASEBALL FAN SPRINTS ACROSS THE FIELD AND THEN GETS LAID OUT BY THE BALL GIRL...

Dodger Stadium was the site of the latest spectator on the field Sunday, and let us tell you, this was a talented fan on the field. He managed to make it into center field, at which point he was seemingly surrounded by a half-dozen members of the security team.

Displaying elite speed and hurdling a tackle attempt, our protagonist booked it for right field, where a short fence might have provided a natural escape. If it weren't for a ball girl, lying in wait.

One hard push and one crash over the fence later, the runner was on the ground and being apprehended by security.

SHARK BITES MAN WHILE PARAGLIDING

A man was bitten in the foot by a shark while paragliding in the Red Sea. According to information from The Sun, the man is 37-years-old and has lived to tell the tale.
The incident took place in Aqaba, Jordan. The man was being pulled by a boat, while he was attached to a paraglider, when the shark leapt out of the water and bit him.
According to The Sun, the man, whose identity was not disclosed, was rushed to a nearby military hospital. He has broken bones, as well as several torn tendons and muscles, but is stable after undergoing surgery.
The episode was filmed by a witness. You can watch the video below...

VENOMOUS SPITTING COBRA ON THE LOOSE IN NORTH CAROLINA NEIGHBORHOOD
North Carolinians beware, there is currently a highly venomous spitting cobra hiding somewhere in northwest Raleigh. The zebra cobra that escaped is owned by Christopher Gifford, a reptile enthusiast who routinely shows off exotic reptiles on his social media platforms. This isn’t the first time one of Gifford’s snakes put him in the news this year though. Back in March, his pet West African Green Mamba put him in the hospital after delivering a venom-packed bite. Gifford still lives with his parents in the Raleigh suburbs, which is where the snake was last spotted. That was Monday evening, when a neighbor called the cops to report that they had spotted a potentially dangerous snake in their neighborhood.

UPDATE: THE SNAKE HAS BEEN CAPTURED

… Check this website for the latest news on the snake.

SPECTATOR IS ON THE RUN AFTER CAUSING MASSIVE CRASH AT TOUR DE FRANCE
Fans are back at the Tour de France and it led to a disastrous start. After nearly 700 days between the conclusion of the 2019 race and Day 1 of the 2021 race, spectators lined the streets. They were not allowed at the race in 2020 due to the COVID-19 global pandemic. It didn’t take long for those in attendance on Saturday to play a big role during the first stage. Not but 28 miles into the stage, a fan held a cardboard sign in front of the riders that read “Allez Opi-Omi!” which is a hello message to her grandparents. Oblivious, she did not pull the sign away in time and German cyclist Tony Martin could not avoid a collision. His crash led to a domino effect involving a large number of riders. It is being called the worst wreck in Tour history.
