Ahhhh, Autumn. A time to admire the changing foliage, carve some pumpkins, and get lost in corn mazes…. really, really lost in corn mazes. A family in Danvers, Mass., carrying a three-week old, found out the hard way that corn mazes aren’t to be taken lightly — especially as night falls — as they frantically called 911 when they couldn’t find the exit at the seven acre corn maze at Connors Farm:

A K-9 unit arrived, and the dispatcher had the family yell out, “Hello K-9!” several times so the officers could locate them. It turned out the family was just 25 feet in.

“It took us about a minute, minute and a half to find them,” Rich Potter of Connor’s Farms told Boston’s WHDH.

Potter said that there were still workers at the farm, but nobody heard shouts for help. Barstool Sports has audio of the entire call, and if you have seven minutes today, there is probably nothing more entertaining for your ears. The repeated calls of “Hello K-9!” alone are worth it. Thankfully, for the sake of their Facebook pages, the names of the callers have not been released.

For those interested and in the Danvers area (just 20 minutes north of Boston, it might be a nice place to go on a date with someone you met at Occupy Boston), Connors Farm charges $8.50 for admission to the maze, and it will remain open until Oct. 31. Potter suggests writing down the number of he main office to call instead of 911 in case you get lost.

A map wouldn’t do much good.

Or chat up a Wall Street trader and you can go to a decent restaurant and a play.

we’re all wondering why they didn’t walk through the cornstalks rather than sticking with the maze inside. I assume they just kind of freaked out,

Why do you preface every statement with “Fact:”? You started this comment with “Fact:” and then you asked a question, that does not make any sense. Also, I was wondering who would be the first person to make this a partisan issue, you won!

People, what is a corn maze before it is a maze? That’s right, it is a corn field. If you keep walking in one direction through the corn, you will get out. You may ruin the maze, but it isn’t made of concrete or steel.

You can simply step through the corn and get out.

I saw that. I know the place and it’s a riot that those people weren’t smart enough to find their way out.
