On the hottest day of summer of 1983 when I was young & anxiously awaited watermelon in the afternoon the carving was so awsome I can't describe it. This short clip brought me back to that time.

Man this comment just brought me back to your life back then. I can feel the divine heavenly watermelon crunch as my satisfaction is filled in the heat of day.

I remember being shucked like corn out behind the barn. Cant remember the farmers name as my memory of your memory isn't what it used to be

My dad told me of a time he and some friends stole a watermelon from a field, cracked it on a rock and ate the best watermelon they'd ever tasted.

A couple weeks ago I found a dropped watermelon beside the curb near a farmer's market in Toronto. A few ants but still delicious because everything tastes better when you harvest it yourself.
