    Here’s the lead in the press release for the Niko Niko:

    “Who will hold the 2012 Niko Niko’s World Gyro-Eating Championship title? Will it be last year’s winner Joey Chestnut who ate 21 Niko Niko’s gyros in only 10 minutes? Will former champ Pat Bertoletti step up to the plate and reclaim his winning status? Or is rookie Ben Monson hungry enough to surprise us all? Houston’s Food Festival Gyro-Eating Contest On Sunday afternoon on May 20th 2012, eaters from all over will face a plate full of delicious Niko Niko’s gyros and fierce competition.”

    Ben Monson?

    Sounds like they copied the 2011 press release word for word. Rookie? Maybe in 2010, but he hasn’t competed since then.
