wing contest is not what it used to be like back in day. Booker used to dominate this event

Why was judging based on weight like every other year? Bit sus!

9:50 – because judging on weight consumed is fairer to judge than counting wing bones

I think back in day they used to base it on how many wings you ate but that went out the door when they realized that some were not cleaning the wings good enough

Kyle can’t eat
Why are you lying in comments about your sub count. Your “100k” is not from eating. It’s fraudulent and you won’t mention it to people commenting but rather say thanks when people say you’re close to 100k subs.
Also the “challenges” you’re doing and counting as wins are not actual food challenges. Just becuase you go in there and make up one you can win does not make it an actual win.
You’re a liar and fraud. This whole “1 challenge a week and keeping it down and dieting on off days” is a crock too. You continue to post food challenges week after week; donut “reviews” every week, and junk food binges day after day. And you haven’t gained a pound. It’s a lie and you know it.
Why do you continue to lie?

Peta @950 The actual placings are always based on weight, but the Sheas report it as number of wings. The Buffet Bowl is reported as weight.

Going off of weight is the only fair way to judge wing contests really.

One of the reasons why Bob Shoudt quit MLE was because he got sick and tired of getting screwed over in totals with Sonya in wings and both sonya and Coni with corn. Hot dogs were never an issue because he would crush Sonya and Conti in both departments Shoudt would always bring a camera and take photos of sonya and conti trays poining out clear cut reasons why both of them cheated. He sent the pics to Seiken to post on his website because the pics would fall on deaf ears if he sent them to the Sheas.

Why don’t they post the weight results as well though??
What if someone’s tray was lighter but they decided to count the wings instead and make them the winner?
Just saying.

OJ is there a way you can add a function like FB next to each comment with option of adding a photo from iphone or pc? It would be a lot better than people posting clickable links under their comments which nobody bothers clicking to begin with
