SkyBridge Pumpkin Toss to benefit Sevier Co. Food Ministry

While we expect chucking those pumpkins into the abyss is super fun, it's also for a good cause!

GATLINBURG, Tenn. — That's one way to get rid of your jack o'lantern!

On Friday, folks are gathering at the Gatlinburg SkyBridge to toss their pumpkins over the edge!

While we expect chucking those pumpkins into the abyss is super fun, it's also for a good cause!

Every person will pay $5 for the honor and the proceeds will go to the Sevier County Food Ministry. People can bring their own pumpkins, or toss one they have there at the SkyLift Park.
