Probable Man vs. Food Milwaukee casting call

Reality wanted has a casting call for a big eater to appear in upcoming episode of an unnamed reality show to be filmed in Milwaukee. The show is most likely Man vs. Food: Nation. Reality Wanted also has a request for someone to attempt an eating challenge for a Louisville episode recorded earlier this month and Fox41 reports that Man vs. Food filmed in Kentucky on May 9. (A possible candidate would be Molly Cary, the only competitive eater Pat Bertoletti has faced off against and never defeated. She was the runner-up in a 2004 Milwaukee corned beef eating contest Bertoletti finished third in and has not done another IFOCE contest.)
