    Then he (Bob Kuhns) went to Bartolini’s to eat a 10 pound meatball sub! That guy is a bottomless pit. BEST long distance eater in America.

    You forget Kobi is here now. He is the best long distance eater in the universe.

    A 10 POUND meatball sub? Seriously? That’s hard to believe.

    Oh come on. . .I’m not saying Bob Kuhns is not an excellent eater and I don’t go in for this AYCE vs. IFOCE silliness. . .but a statement saying he is the best long distance eater is ridiculous. The top IFOCE people could eat more in 10 minutes then he could in 2 hours. Do you have any idea how much volume 40-70 hot dogs plus liquid takes up? A lot more than 36 meatballs and 1/3 of a meatball sub. . .Just the way it is!

    Don’t forget to count how much the gloves can hold too. 🙂

    Kuhns is THE best long distance eater I know. He may not be Kobayashi but then again NOONE is Kobayashi except Kobayashi. I give respect where its due.

    Kuhn’s might beat kobi in a long contest.

    He has lost to Shirota in a marathon, I think.

    Now that Rich LeFevre is retired, he may be one of the best, if not the best “grazers” around.
