    Why weren’t Pat, Joey, Tim, Bob, or Matt there. A couple of them might have done over 60 dozen, especially Joey and Pat..

    That’s funny, because Pat ate 39 doz last year, Joey would have puked, Matt has never eaten an oyster in his life, and Tim’s forte is not technique foods. Hmmm…

    Wonder how Kobi would do. Maybe he will challenge her record.

    I would do oysters if conti wasn’t there organizing his parties where everyone gets wasted just so his stupid needs are satisfied. Total waste of time

    It seems impossible to stab 47 dozen oysters with a fork in eight minutes, let alone eat them.

    Win or lose, Sonya always takes her A game into competition. Sometimes it’s good enough, sometimes it isn’t, but she is always a force to be reckoned with. She gives everything she’s got all the time.

    If Kobi challenges this record he will be it. Maybe he can do 100 dozen.

    I think Seiken could have won, but he is so kind he did not want to ruin Sonya’s day, and did not participate. I am actually tearing up, thinking of the wonderfulness of Seiken.
