6 crabcakes in 2:42 called best crabcake performance

The Baltimore Sun has an article about the Phillips crabcake eating contest at the Maryland Seafood Festival. Walter Hughes won the contest by eating 6 crabcakes in 2:42.

Michelle Torres, director of marketing for Phillips Seafood Restaurants, said Hughes was the fastest crab-cake eater she had ever seen. The restaurant had sponsored four crab-eating contests in recent years, Torres said, and Hughes had outpaced all the other winners.

Sonya Thomas ate 46 crabcakes in 10 minutes to win the 2006 Phillips crabcake contest.

    See, that’s what gets me. If it’s not the writers printing inaccurate information, it’s the ones providing it. Of course, money is to memory what WD-40 is to the squeaky roller.

    Sonya ate over four crabcakes every minute for 10 minutes. However, I understand the local eatery trying to get some good press for their event and they have to come up with something unique — “Best eater she has ever seen.” I guess she’s accurate if she never saw Sonya eat crabcakes.
