Naked Pumpkin Run is an annual event in certain United States municipalities where otherwise nude participants run a course through a town, their heads adorned with carved pumpkins.[1] Runs have been held in Boulder, Colorado; Seattle, Washington; Portland, Oregon; and Arcata, California.[2]
History
The event can be traced to an unsuccessful 1974 Guinness World Record attempt by University of Colorado at Boulder students.[1]
12 out of 150[2] participants were arrested and charged with indecent exposure at the event in 2008.[3] In 2009, local police threatened participants with charges of indecent exposure and registration as a sex offender if they were arrested during the run.[1] The few people who subsequently participated in the run wore enough clothing to avoid being arrested.[2]
Runners in Hamilton, Ontario had their first Naked Pumpkin run on October 30, 2015.[4]
