    So with BB doing that burger challenge and now Badlands doing the burrito, is it open season for IFOCE eaters to try challenges?

    If the sponsor steals the local or nationwide news story regarding the challenge and the sheas find out about it, then it becomes a problem . Otherwise it’s no big deal unless both eaters feel like mentioning it on twitter or some other place

    Joey might have had a bad day. Will he retire soon while hes still on top? Bertoletti lost to a girl last week but yet he beats Joey and Joey is supposed to be number one. I think Koby is number one now so from now on Im rooting for him.

    Has anyone seen the wloce website ? Dale ranks himself #1 with Bubba right behind him. The same Bubba that wanted to punch Dale out so badly at rib contest , he pleaded with charles hardy to look the other way just that one time. He must have paid off Isabel Turel and Joe Menchetti to join his league the same way he paid off Bubba. How does he repay them? Menchetti is ranked 8th and Turel dead last. Look out Jill you are on his anxiously waiting list also. The big $25 offer is in the mail . Take it Jill , he insists

    Look at that punk ass McKirdy kid near the bottom. Talks a big game about how he is going to take it to Badlands Booker and meanwhile, he cannot even beat local Allen Tran or the well traveled Bill Myers. GIVE IT UP KID

    Bertoletti, you have taken Joeys title and now the gods will punish you by making your pee stink really bad. So let it be written.

    It wasn’t my day. All props go to the eaters that showed up to compete. At least I gave it a run. Asparagus is a bitch.
