Brian Seiken has a few more details about the controversial finish to the Nathan’s qualifier in Sunrise, Fl on Saturday. It is surprising that there are no articles, blog entries or buffet message board posts with additional details about this contest two days after it took place.

Did the IFOCE tell the guys to not say anything or something like that? Bubba, Larry, Erik – these guys always have stats put up right away…

The only surprise is there hasn’t been a real controversy in a while.
Crazy legs has a long history of eating like a slob with a ton of detrius all over the place, having a dog or two on the floor, & 4 buns worth in a couple of cups.
Sadly, he’s not even the most slovenly eater… That award probably goes to Dale “Mouth O’ the South” Boone. In the Pelmeni contest that he was awarded a win in, he had so much sh*t all over the floor, I thought he threw up.

Some eaters are messiers than others. They should crack down on it, but if the judges allow it there will be controversy and eaters should deal with it and discuss rules with the godfather and shea’s. Gi joe, you have been out of the big leagues for so long, you are in no position to talk smack. At least the above eaters arn’t playing in the little league.

Larry, I am sure you are pretty cool guy, and i have a lot of respect for your feats, but i am sorry to say this but the Big Cock is gonna do some damage witht the tamales. Pat and I did run through practicing for Bacci Pizza for fun. Let me just say this, he’s goning to break “The Locust’s” record in July. I was shocked at how he tore up the “X” amount of slices in 5 minutes. I had to stop to laugh my ass off in amazement. But keep up the the good work, Larry.

For all the BB.com bashers via email and what not, let me say that you thick skulled idiots still think that what i write is a personal attack on the eaters. I was fed info on Crazy Legs Conti and the Sunrise qualfier and i think its the competitive eating community’s rights to hear whatever info i have gathered. I like Crazy Legs . I will always like him no matter how much he is accused of this and that. He has always treated me with respect and has been a friend to say the least. I have to print sensationalist material or else BB.com is worthless. If you want to live in la la land watch Mr Rogers or listen to cousin brucie . That is not the real world.

I’m looking forward to seeing Larry and Tim in Houston, but I don’t have a clue as to who “Big Cock” is, and if he’s as big a threat as The Sicilian says he is I’d like to know a little more about him.

I’ve been keeping up with what’s been posted on the IFOCE website, therefore I knew Pat was kicking ass. I just didn’t know he was going by “Big Cock”.

And yes I am The Profit, last year’s Tamale Champ.

Pardon my poor spelling and the correction, but it’s actually The Prophet, as in a person that views the future rather than the gains of an investment.

What goes around comes around sooner or later the bad judgement calls and crowning of fake winners come back to haunt you. Would not be surprise if one by one eaters start to say enough of this shit im outta here

This is a reminder that posts containing IFOCE vs. AICE insults will not pass moderation.

As far as this controversy goes, it seems that there has only been one side of the story revealed. We are all adults and can recognize that every event in life has several viewpoints and opinions. Since this is the very serious, and very professional sport of eating, we should compare it to other sports… All sports have close calls; all sports have calls that are not appreciated and approved by all participants, fans, and judges. However, what distinguishes a fine athelete is his sportsmanship in all cirumstances, win or lose. This should be acknowledged in this instance, in past contests, and future contests.
Unfortunately, not everyone can win. Unfortunately, controversy and unfair calls have affected EVERY eater (in this case, Mr. LaRue and in the past Mr. Conti). And FORTUNATELY, IFOCE (only used as a reference tool of the eaters in question in this specific controversy) eaters are all respectable athletes with good sportmanship attitudes (I realize that most would exclude Boone) who not only make up a fine eating orginization, but have an exceptional comaderie that should be valued above all else and is the more crucial experience in life.
Name calling and insults are not only unsportsmanlike, but cruel and unnecessary as well. All the banter makes everyone involved feel badly and only results in a negative projection on others’ lives and a spoiling of the sport. Eating should be pleasurable in all quantities.
