Bostonist previews AICE Italian sausage
Bostonist has a blog entry about the Italian Festival in East Boston today:
The site for Italia Unita is taking great pride in the sausage-eating contest, and the site showcases several of the competitors who will be tackling the sausage on Saturday. Massachusetts local Tom “Goose” Gilbert is looking to defeat Menchetti today. We hope Gilbert brings a box of Tums with him.
The contest will be followed by a concert by Frank Stallone (“Far From Over”)
