(Newser) – Everyone’s favorite child bride Courtney Stodden was just trying to have some “innocent fall fun” at a pumpkin patch with her hubby this weekend when a bunch of “Halloween scrooges” got them kicked out, Anderson Cooper complained last night on the Ridiculist. “She had no other choice but to walk her festive stripper boots right out of there and show off her pumpkins on the side of the road,” he said, while flashing disturbing photos from the outing. “There are other photos, oh yes, but we can’t put them on TV,” he added. “Let’s just say they show a little too much crack-o-lantern, if you will.”

Coop also highlighted other notable moments from Stodden’s rise to infamy, including a truly terrible music video that has so far racked up 2.9 million views on YouTube. “That’s right. The Internet: It’s a pumpkin patch that’s impossible to get thrown out of,” he noted. As for all those “Halloween haters, it is real simple: If you don’t want to see a scantily clad 17-year-old making out with her 51-year-old husband, maybe you shouldn’t go to a pumpkin patch.”
