MIX 102.3 GREAT PUMPKIN GIVEAWAY

Mix 102.3's The Ali Clarke Breakfast Show gave away 102.3 pumpkins live on air, ahead of Halloween.

Breakfast show co-host, Max Burford, and friend of the show, Cosi Costello were based at Baymore Reserve in Modbury, and gave away pumpkins to passerbyers who stopped and collected them.

Max was also dressed in a pumpkin suit to get into the Halloween spirit. 

You can give the audio from the show a listen here.

Not the first of 102.3's antics this year, earlier in March Mix102.3 revealed they were behind the mysterious Man in the White Suit, who had been spotted all over Adelaide giving away gifts in the lead up to Valentines Day.

The story read: "For the last few weeks, a man dressed head to toe in white, with his recognisable white top hat and white stretched Hummer in tow, has been sparking conversation amongst Adelaideans.

The man approaches members of the public and gives away everything from flowers to cash. The gestures began with free white roses on Valentine’s Day, icy poles during Adelaide’s recent heatwave and last week, it was money.

People have been asking questions about the man’s origin, taking to Reddit and sending in images to online publications like Glam Adelaide, hoping to find some answers.

While much of the mystery around the Man in the White Suit remains, it has been revealed that Adelaide radio station Mix102.3 is responsible for the gift-giving fella."

Head of KIIS Network, Derek Bargwanna, said at the time, “We thought it’d be a fun idea to spread kindness and love around Adelaide, with a little mysterious twist.”
