    Seiiken is scheduled in this contest and his name isn’t even mentioned . A disgrace if you ask me

    Always looking out for Number Me……and they still spelled your name incorrectly. THEY have class. Yeah, I wanted to add something which rhymes with class but am taking the high road. You didn’t see Adrian Morgan having an early nutty, did you?

    Brian is absolutely right. Between the time we received a list from MLE and the time we issued this release, two ranked eaters joined the field. We just issued a revised release that includes Brian and Adrian Morgan (#14).
    Looks to be a terrific field, potentially the most competitive in the event’s seven-year history!

    Sorry about the omission, Brian. I will let the Lewisville Convention & Visitors Bureau know as well. Where are you from? And good luck!

    “Where are you from?” sounds slightly better than “Who are you?” In either case, it says basically the same thing. Stand back back tamales, 9 or 10 of you are going down!

    Seiken had to remind them he’s on the roster like he’s been doing throughout his competitive eating career
