VABills Posted May 25, 2005 Posted May 25, 2005 http://www.cnn.com/2005/US/05/25/big.fish.ap/index.html Guy catching a 124 pound fish and CNN says its as big as a 6th grader. Damn they must have huge children where he is from. No, seriously: It was roughly the size of a sixth-grader. Pruitt, casting his line in the Mississippi River on Sunday, hauled up a 58-inch (146 cm) long, 44-inch (111 cm) around blue catfish that weighed a whopping 124-pounds (56 kg).
John from Riverside Posted May 25, 2005 Posted May 25, 2005 And that must be the average weight..... My son is in the 6th grade....he weighs 143 pounds as of this morning....

justnzane Posted May 25, 2005 Posted May 25, 2005 I guess I was a late bloomer, as I didn't break 143 until i was in 10th grade

And at such a young age!
kegtapr Posted May 26, 2005 Posted May 26, 2005 I was 120 by the end of 6th grade and was in no way obese. I was a tall kid though. Of course half that weight was below my waist and above my knees.
BRH Posted May 26, 2005 Posted May 26, 2005 I weighed 125 when I graduated high school. And I'm 5'11" (and was then, too). 155 when I graduated college; now I'm about 180. In sixth grade I think I was about 4'9 and 80 pounds.

And at such a young age! 345304[/snapback] You got that right.....there ARE a lot of obese kids in schools.... My kid isn't one of them though.....at 143 pounds he has almost no fat on him.... Big shoulders Huge legs and ankles Has arms that are actually defined And get this....he actually has a fricken 4 pack...... He doesnt look ANYTHING like me at that age.....I was heavy early and started getting more athletic as I got older after hitting the weightroom....however his mom was an athlete early.
