    The picture at the end certainly doesn’t look like it is 30 lbs…

    Check and see if they are bankrupt first.

    You’re right Blizz, that doesn’t look like 30 lb., but that may not be the one. The article said it was 3.5 feet long.

    They know its virtually impossible unless Molly Chestnut or Kobe gave it a try and even that might be a bit too much for them. Also a strong chance that the restaurant will more than likely go out of biz in the near future so that 10% ownership incentive is a crock of crap

    If it really is 30 lb., no one will finish. Agree also there is a good chance they will go out of business. 50% of all new restaurant fail.

    What’s the point of anybody even trying. No one human can eat 30 pounds, maybe drink 30 pounds. but in no way eat that insane amount of food. A desperate scam for free publicity without spending one red cent. Place must not be doing well.

    This is obviously a stupid challenge but I guess they got themselves publicity.
