Pat is right. Take away Joey and the rest are all table enders.

At annoymous 1:15 Either A) Your comment was made just to upset people or B) you are just that uneducated on competitve eating. How can you consider Bob Shoudt, Badlands Booker and regaurdless how you feel about CLC as table enders? Here are the records these guys hold (no offense to the other eaters but these are the only ones I know that were competing today):
Bob Shoudt-•Beef Brisket BBQ Sandwiches: 34.75 Beef Brisket BBQ Sandwiches/Cherokee Casino / 10 Minutes/July 26, 2008,Chili Spaghetti: 13.9 lbs Skyline Chili Spaghetti/Kings Island / 10 Minutes/September 7, 2009,French Fries: 7.9 lbs Curley’s French Fries / Curley’s Fries Eating Championship @ Morey’s Piers / 10 minutes / May 31, 2010, Krystal Hamburgers, 2 minutes: 39 Krystal Hamburgers / 2 minutes/September 2007,Peanut Butter & Banana Sandwiches: 36 Sandwiches/The Isle Casino Hotel Biloxi / 10 minutes/Jan 9, 2010,Roast Beef Sliders: 37.5 / Roy Rogers World Roast Beef Slider Eating Championship / 8 minutes/Nov. 13, 2009,Salmon Chowder: 312 fl oz; 23.4 lbs/The Slammin’ Salmon World Chowder Eating Contest / 6 minutes/Dec. 3, 2009, Steeplechase/Chowdown Championship: Pork burgers, Beef ribeye sandwiches, Turkey Legs, Grilled Cheese Sandwiches, Cupcakes/Indiana State Fair / August 19, 2006,Steeplechase/Ultimate Eating Tournament: Shrimp, Pralines, Hot Dogs, Nachos, Gelato/Broadway at the Beach / 10 minutes/ Apr. 22, 2006
Badlands-•Burritos: 15 BurritoVille burritos / 8 minutes, Candy Bars: Two Pounds Chocolate Candy Bars / 6 minutes,Corned Beef Hash: 4 pounds of hash / 1 minute 58 seconds,Doughnuts: 49 glazed doughnuts / 8 minutes/October 2, 2002,Hamentaschen: 50 traditional Purim cookies / 6 minutes, •Matzo Balls: 21 baseball-sized matzo balls / 5 minutes, 25 seconds
•Onions: 8.5 ounces Maui Onions (three onions)/ Whalers Village / 1 minute/ Aug. 8, 2004, •Peas: 9.5 one-pound bowls / 12 minutes, Pumpkin Pies: 4-3/8 Entenmann’s Pumpkin Pies / 12 Minutes/ Nov. 22, 2004
CLC-•Buffet: 5 1/2 pounds of buffet food / 12 minutes, Green Beans, French Cut: 2.71 Pounds Green Beans / Six Minutes, Pancakes: 3 1/2 pounds pancakes & bacon / 12 minutes
(Remember these stats came from the ifoce website, so who knows last time they were updated. These three are all great eaters (and awesome guys) and while Joey and Pat might be the number one and two eaters in the world (sorry Bob) these three deserve more respect than someone annyomously posting they should be conssidered “table enders.”

you’re going to examine someones comments after 12 beers? Come on. He’s feeling pretty good at that point, and having some fun. Would you have preferred him saying he had no chance and he shouldn’t even compete?

I understand Pat view as Joey being his competition and arch rival my problem was calling everyone else a “table ender”. They deserve respect!

Not that it matters much and with no disrespect to you, Larellmarie, but Booker finished with 26, not 27.

Congratulations IamLiam. Pay no attention to stupid comments, keep your enthusiasm for competitive eating. Comments here are very mixed but this is the most up to date and thorough place to get information about competitive eating. IFOCE/MLE will post results and brief information but usually not quickly if at all. It would be nice if they did more, but they do not.

It was my first event on the circuit, or in a 10-minute eating contest for that matter. I have to say that it was an amazing experience. The environment was fun and lively, everything I saw on television from Coney Island and other eating contests was just heightened by today. Liam and Larellmarie, it was great competing with you two. I was proud of my 8.5 slices, so I’ll be happy to say that I got 10th place.

Hmm BB.com was the most up to date place to get info until creepy slimy OJ rifkin who refuses to post his or her real identity came along.

Petty Change – that was pretty cruel; it’s the guys 1st contest ever; he was just statn a fact! Was just letn me know we tied each other. I don’t care if I’m winning $ or not; that’s not why I do this. To me it’s an awesome experience each time I’m allowed to eat with the gr8 eaters of the IFOCE and just enjoy the exctitement of the whole circuit 🙂 @IamLiam – good work and gr8 to hv met u as well!!! @Down the Hatch – and you should be. As long as each eater puts forth their best, they should be proud and am glad I was at the table with you! 🙂 @Anonymous 9:19 – o, thank you for the correct info, appreciate it!!!

Bertoletti should not even be at the same table as Joey Chestnut. Pat should drop out of the top 10.

I wanted to see more of Larell Marie Mele and this guy has the camera focused on two very boring eaters. during the entire contest. The quality of the video is horrible. Can someone please invest in High Def 720 dpi video camcorder

Mine was just a hd flip cam… the phantom gourmet should have a video out soon like the one from last year.
I had it focused on me so I can learn from my eating… I realized I wasn’t full at the end at all and just eat WAY TOO CLEAN… gotta start practicing with tearing and smashing…

IamLiam, pay no attention to stupid comments. You are clearly a class act. Sometimes people who frequently take videos of contests criticize on here about others videos. Just more negative stuff. Keep going.

Anon 222 – lolll – Thx!!!! I understand where Liam is coming from, it was his camera so naturally he focused on himself for future viewing. I, too, am disappointed that so far there is not real footage ‘cept the little 2 minute video. Wld luv to c the entire contest and all the eaters like previous Upper Crust 🙂 If u find out there is more, cld u let us know? Thx
