The rutabaga had a hole in the top of the main neck allowing air water and insects into the top of it. It had just started to rot a bit. I took it to the fair just to have it weighed. It still weighed 86.8lbs but just like the pumpkins there is a standard. With pumpkins no open holes are allowed into the cavity. Well rutabagas should have no cavity (hollow heart)period. Some where along the way I checked it's growth and when it took off again I wasn't on top of it. Oh well! But hey thanks anyhow. LOL!

Thats Aweaome Scott! Any chance of replanting it to try and get some seeds next year?

Sorry to say no. Once internal rot starts they won't keep in cold storage very well at all.
