it’s been a long time since CLC has had a 1st Place Victory, so where did Crazy Legs hide the corn this time?

Good enough reason for the sheas to reward conti with a top 5 spot in the rankings. If anyone else won the contest it would not matter

Let’s hear from somebody if the debris was scooped up for deductions in this one. Probably NOT

@WB fan thanks for the support, I did 25 good enough for fourth. @anonymous 6:06 the judges did a very good job inspecting each cob, debris and anything else and adding the deductions to that, I dont know if anyone could complain about that. I tried to complie a complete list of rankings but I am missing the totals for three eaters but this is what I could gather:
1. CLC 33.5 ears
2. B.O.B. 32.5 ears
3. Hall “hoover” Hunt 31 ears
4. Sean “Wrecking Ball” Brockert 25 ears
5. David Solomon 22 ears
t6. Bruce Ollis 16 ears
t6. Jimmy “Klepto” Altman 16 ears
8. Garret Elkins 15 ears
9. Jason “Value Meal Killa” Pennington 14 ears
10. Eric Libel 11 ears
I also heard another eater (tall guy with glasses who was eating corn prior to the event) ate 11 ears but I dont know his name. If anyone can fill in the rest please let me know.

I find it odd that Wrecking ball seems to go out of his way to post full results of the corn contest only because he finished 4th with 25 but failed to put out the same effort when he finished with 3 corned beef sandwiches at Toojay last month. To me that is very poor sportsmanship on his end

Maybe he didn’t have the full results of the other contest. Mean, mean, mean people on this site. Talk about poor sportsmanship. Weird.

I don’t consider legs win an upset, how many years has he been doing corn?
Legs should have out distenced bob and the rest of the field considerably .
Shows how good bob is with no prior exp.
Ears looked average in size, number would have been higher if I were there.
Lets see what you dbag haters got to say bout that!

i posted the complete rankings because i was asked for them by some eaters from the contest. i am actually the one who supplied mle with the full results of too jays as well including my total! i could have easily inflated my totals to impress the critics of eatfeats but i honestly couldnt care less!

Jammin Joe LaRue would have layed an ass beating on the competiton had he been “allowed’ to participate but since he is not one of the ass kissers……enough said.
