The WLOCE myspace page has a picture of Loren “Bubba” Yarbrough captioned WLOCE NEW MEMBERS.
update This post somehow overwrote the previous one, which was about videos from the previous weekend’s contests:
610WTVN cannoli contest video
New York Post cannoli contest video
Grits contest video with interviews of Tim Janus and Joey Chestnut
Jalapeno contest video from AKA MediaThe Krystal Square Off blog has Kobayashi’s appearances on local news today
Frank 151 has a blog entry about Friday’s cannoli eating contest with a video and several pictures.
At this moment, results from only one of the five IFOCE contests this weekend (Nashville Krystals) appear to have been posted on IFOCE.com
The La Contena “Feel the Heat” jalapeno eating contest in Chicago yesterday was listed at #7 in the Sportscenter top 10 plays of the weekend.
Olympic swimmer Michael Phelps appeared on last night’s episode of Saturday Night Live and starred in a fake ad promoting his diet which featured items such as a pitcher of hollandaise sauce. Jared Fogle from the Subway commercials makes a cameo.
Megamunch has a blog entry reporting that the ABC show is seeking a competitive eater for an upcoming episode of “Wife Swap”. The families of Badlands Booker and boxer Jennifer Alcorn appeared in a 2006 episode.
WLOCE.com has updated its points standings. Michael Diebold is not ranked even though he came in second in the Skin’s hot dog contest in Anderson, SC.
A list of all Krystal personal bests above 30 burgers follows after the jump:
A Pat Bertoletti podcast and entrants list is available on KrystalSquareOff.com
Dewey of YardBarker has a gallery of Joey Chestnut’s apartment which includes a picture of his trophy collection.
No results from Saturday’s Skin’s hot dog eating contest at the Great Southeast Balloon Festival appear to have been posted on WLOCE.com
The location for the second Skin’s hot dog contest on September 12 is not explicitly listed. It is probably the Chattahoochee Mountain Fair based on the logo.
A forum thread on bodybuilding.com has been started in which “Furious” Pete Czerwinski and other members respond to Brad Sciullo’s interview with “Beautiful” Brian Seiken.
Route 66 News reports that a book titled “Story of the Free 72-oz. Steak†about the Big Texan Steak Ranch’s signature meal has been published. The book contains a list of a challenge finishers since 1990. (Records before that year have been lost)
The book is available through mail order.
This week’s episode of “Hurl” on the G4 network, “That’s Bull”, will have only females competing according to the episode list. The program will air at 7 and 10:30 pm eastern. This will be the first women-only competitive eating program broadcast on American television to the best of my knowledge.
G4’s website has an interview with one of the competitors, Cassie Jenkins.
Podcast interviews of Sonya Thomas and Hall Hunt are available on the Krystal Square Off blog.
Hall Hunt has released a new poll. The new top 5:
1. Joey “Jaws” Chestnut (9) (242) [1]
2. Takeru Kobayashi (221) [2]
3. Patrick “Deep Dish” Bertoletti (213) [3]
4. “Humble” Bob Shoudt (196) [6]
5. Tim “Eater-X” Janus (190) [4]
A press release announces the Japanese launch of the Major League Eating Wiiware video game which will be available on October 14. Nobuyuki “the Giant” Shirota and Hatsuyo “the Witch” Sugawara have been added to the game, apparently replacing Rich LeFevre and Juliet Lee.
update TokyoMango has an English blog entry about the release
The German magazine Der Spiegel has an English article and gallery about La Tomatina, a annual tomato fight that will be held in Buñol, Spain tomorrow. During the event, 150,000 kg (330,000 lb.) of tomatoes are ruined. Despite wasting orders of magnitude more food than any American eating contest, the event does not seem to have drawn the same amount of criticism that competitive eating does.
In a forum thread on bodybuilding.com, “Furious” Pete Czerwinski reports that he is going to Los Angeles today to record a competitive eating themed episode of “Sport Science” which appears on the Fox Sports Network. This is the second competitive eating program announced for Fox Sports; the Krystal Square Off finals will be televised on Fox Sports South.
