Playable Tetris Carved Into Pumpkin, Controlled By Stem

This is a pumpkin carved and lit to play Tetris. You can actually PLAY Tetris on it, using the stem as a joystick. You can read about the whole build process HERE, which was way more complicated than just taping a Game Boy to a pumpkin like I would have done. I dunno, it just seems like a lot of work for something the neighborhood kids are just going to smash in my driveway later. One year they even threw it through a window. This year though, oh boy, this year I'm booby trapping the pumpkin. "With what?" Just watch the news -- you'll see.

Thanks to Soju, who has a pumpkin that can play Call of Duty but really regrets wasting a magic wish on that.
