2013 Panama City Beach Hooters qualifier
Article about Neil Sebree’s victories in Destin, FL ghost wing contests. He ate over 90% of what Joey Chestnut ate. If he can match that in a hot dog contest, it would correspond to around 65 hot dogs.
Results: Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3
1) Joey Chestnut 140 wings
2) Neil Sebree (Freeport, FL) 128
3) Jon Bello 125
4) Sean Gordon 94
5) Yasir Salem 92
6) Henry Victoria 90
7T) Crazy Legs Conti 66
7T) Don Potts 66
9T) Steve Martin 52
9T) Dee Martin 52
11) Warren McFarland 46
12) Carol Jones 38
update Ryan Pinkerton thinks the contest sponsor is Buffalo Wild Wings
Joey Chestnut, Sean Gordon, Crazy Legs Conti and Yasir Salem are expected to compete in today’s wing qualifier. This will be the first qualifier for Joey Chestnut. He was announced as a competitor in last year’s qualifier in Miami, FL but did not compete there and apparently received a bye to the finals.
It will be interesting to see if this year’s circuit follows the pattern of most contests last year and only announces wing counts even though the results were supposedly based on total weight consumed. If the 2012 Olympics 100m men’s sprint was reported in a similar manner, the medalists might look something like this:
- Gold: Usain Bolt 41 strides
- Silver: Yohan Blake 46 strides
- Bronze: Justin Gatlin 42.5 strides

Buffalo Wild Wings should be the sponsor because their wings are so much better then the crappy Hooters wings.

Hot dogs and wings are very different contests. Can’t really compare joeys numbers in hot dogs to his wings performance. But it’s good to have fresh meat taking on the big guys in MLE

I’d be pissed too, if I quit spending money to compete and actually got paid. Thousands spent in MLE and a new Pathfinder and cash as an Indy eater. What a dumbass. Dave you suck! Quit showing off, moron. Hey dick, can I borrow some cash for the subway to get to Coney, douchebag?

You can’t compare wings to hotdogs. The amount of HDBS to eat compared to the average amount of wings eaten is only about 12-15 HDBs. Wings are definitely an equalizer, because its such a technical food. My capacity sucks, but I’ve found a wing technique that works for me. Not to discredit Neal’s performance, wings definitely even the playing field. I think I was happier for Neal than I was for myself. Congrats to everyone that competed. My buddy Henry did a good job too!

Oh you are pissed you are not in the IFOCE wanna know why? Because once 2 days of fame wear off in the media, nobody knows or cares who the f— you are . Thats why you need to come up with some gimmick like creating your own eating challenges so people will notice you . Its IFOCE Nathans and Hooters wings. When you get back enlighten us as to how vacationing in the Caribbean has altered your life for the better like you did last year. If these vacations have made such an impact on you, then why are you still picking on and insulting Seiken? Hmm Hmm Mr Male ? Hmmmm

Anon 5:29 – 2 days of fame is probably more than you have ever seen for one. For 2, every one insults Seiken because he is a internet douche bag and cant eat worth a crap, brings it on himself, For 3, I’m sure US Male is very worried about what is going on anywhere ,especially on Eatfeats right now if he is on vacation, sounds like you need to move out of your parents basement and get a life.
