    I hope it didnt have anything to do with the chill dogs. It would be a black eye to the sport if they linked the chilidogs to stomach or colon cancer

    Black eye to the sport? Someone died.

    In a handful of years Carlene Lefevre will prove to be the smartest one because she got out of it after only a few years. If I were a mortician it might prove lucrative to have a contract with competitive eaters.

    That’s so young. Prayers go out for her soul and her loved ones. I’m sure she is in a much better place.

    I strongly doubt chilli dogs had anything to do with her predicament.
