Punching Kitty has an update on the malt record recently set at the Crown Candy Kitchen by someone claiming to be Kevin Ross. The owner of the Crown Candy Kitchen, Andy Karandzieff, posted a picture of the record setter, and it is definitely not the Kevin Ross who qualified for the 2008 Nathan’s finals.
The “Kevin Ross” claimed to have completed the Pointersaurus, but no information is available on Pointer’s Pizza facebook.
update Barry Stagg reports that the #7 ranked eater (Ben Monson) ate the King Kong Burger challenge in 8 minutes at Ray’s Franks in Houston.
update #2 KSDK and the Riverfront Times have articles.

In A Hamburger Today’s blog entry about the five pound burger at Ed Walker’s Drive-In Restaurant in Fort Smith, Arkansas, commenter BillyBob has the following update
Our waitress said that just a few days ago a woman came in, ate an appetizer, the 5lb burger, the mandatory side plate,(that stuff in the first 20 minutes!!)… then desert, then started eating some of her kids’ food. I’d have been concerned for the kids, themselves, at that point! She might start eating on them next!
A comment on the Man vs. Food message board also says that one of the two finishers was a thin woman
