Near UC Santa Barbara in the early 80’s we played at a ball field adjacent to a massive avocado orchard. They were the size of footballs. Warning signs were there not just about trespassing but of getting your neck snapped from falling fruit.

Wow. Great story. I'm "avocado green" with envy. I believe that Santa Barbara County and SLO county are the avocado producing capital of the United States. That's one reason (the only?) a sane person would relocate to California. I always wanted an avocado tree.
