Sad news for Pumpkin Patch fans

No more pumpkin patch in Roseville

We love us a pumpkin patch here at the Sac Rag. I was beginning to wonder where we were with a 2008 review when I came across this article from kcra.com:

A Placer County pumpkin patch that’s been a local tradition for 20 years won’t be selling any pumpkins this year after getting hit by metal thieves.

Police said the thieves stole copper wiring from electrical lights and a truckload of tools from the Sleepy Hollow Pumpkin Patch in Roseville.

The owner of the patch decided not to open this season after spending $15,000 on repairs.

As we used to say growing up, “that’s weak sauce, man.”

I’ll vote for anyone running for office on a platform of quick executions behind the courthouse, for metal theives and car chase drivers.

Personally, I think this is LAME. So they can’t sell pumpkins during the daytime??? They are going to just give up and deprive all the kiddies of pumpkins? Talk about WEAK sauce, man.

You said it, chapstick. Victims of crime suck.

Yeah- they’re all like “oh woe is me” and “Oh- I can’t run the cash register because I have no electricity.” They should just run the business during the day, and not charge. Damn business owners.
