Two beautiful tomato's, at first glance. I had been watching them turn....

Picked them today.....

One has a hole in the bottom, the other didn't, both obviously rotten....

Cut the one with the hole open looking for a critter but found none!

What tomato variety is that?

thanks for the link, interestingly enought it's the one tomato plant I don't have the 5 gallon watering container with the pin hole in it, so it's not getting watered regularly, well regular watering but not anywhere as much water as the others.....I'll check and see which variety it is.

edit: Park's Whopper something, I guess I burned all my short term memory up in college, I'll have to write it down next time....
