“Dr.” Jon Basso of the Heart Attack Grill has sent the following email:
I was hoping that you could alert the EatFeat fans that the Food Channel is launching a whole new program called “Outrageous”. They’ll be covering different outrageous things in the world of food and have contracted with Page Productions to shoot it for them. The inaugural episode will be a half hour long feature about the Heart Attack Grill. They’re going to film it on Saturday March 28th in Chandler Arizona.
I was hoping that with your influence we could get a visit from some of the better competitors out there. It’d be great exposure for everyone and might shift the direction of the new Outrageous Series more toward the world of competitive eating. Any help would be much appreciated!
