I found an interesting 2014 article about Dancing Pumpkin Man: http://www.wnyc.org/story/sideshow-story-behind-internets-greatest-halloween-video-ever/

The guy says when a call came from America's Got Talent (in 2014), he had hoped they were interested in featuring his stand-up on the show (he had submitted audition tapes). But they were only in it for the Pumpkin Dance, and guess what? He turned them down. "I will not ruin the sanctity of that character," he told them. "If you try to re-create it, it's just, you know, dumb."

Looks like he came around.
