Scott Robb is certainly Alaska’s reining Cabbage King. He took home the blue ribbon Friday with a 97.35 pound cabbage at the 28th annual Gian Cabbage Weigh-off on Friday at the Alaska State Fair. Paul Dinkel and Keevan Dinkel won second and third place, respectively.

Robb set the world record at the fair in 2012, entering a 138.25-pound cabbage. Last year, after taking a few years off, he entered the competition again, and took home the blue ribbon during the 27th annual contest with a 113.5-pound wonder.
