Perhaps it’s a fitting way to honor an old school bus.

A 1968 Bluebird Midwest 50-seater, manufactured in Mt. Pleasant, Iowa, lies across an open field of red peppers, precisely 377 feet down-wind of a pointed cannon. And what’s being fired at the bus—pumpkins—loaded by young children, and their parents who themselves may never be too old for enjoying such fun.

in Sherwood, Oregon, draws scores of kids who delight in firing their grapefruit size pumpkins at the old bus. As you will see in the video, it’s not so easy to hit the stationary target, but for those who are lucky enough (or from their own perspective—skilled enough) to knock out a window, the prize is $5.

While filming inside the bus, some of the pumpkins landed solidly on the metal roof but delivered no real discernible damage. Despite its advanced years, this bus attests to the quality of a bygone era of manufacturing predating the use of plastics and vinyl.

Rest in peace old bus, and joy!
