Whitby Ontario Super Bowl wing contest returns

October 7, 2008 at 11:53 pm by ojrifkin · More posts about:Ontario, Prizes, Unafilliated Contests

The Wing Shack in Whitby, Ontario will be hosting weekly qualifiers for a wing eating contest held on Super Bowl Sunday.

The previous two finals awarded $5000 to the winner. The finals prize for the 2009 contest is not mentioned on the Wing Shack’s website. The website does say that the entry fee is $20 and contests will be winner take all. It is not clear if the overall winner will receive all of the entry fees or if each qualifier winners will receive all the fees for that week. The previous two contests were sponsored by The Rock FM, but the upcoming contest is not mentioned on the radio station website currently.

2008 contest – winner Joe Menchetti
2007 contest – winner Jade Dotzentroth

    In Canada all contests are free to enter. The establishment and sponsors bear all the costs. Note on the back of a Safeway game piece the words “No purchase necessary” and you can ask for a McDonald’s game piece (like Monopoly) without buying a thing.
    In 2003 Hot Dog Jonny refunded my entry $12 fee for a hot dog eating contest when he found out about the regulation. I probably would have won that contest.

    mailto:thewingshack@rogers.com will probably cancel the fee and and maybe the wing eating contest.
