The National Pro-Am Pecan Pie Eating Championship will be held in Birmingham, Alabama on May 12. Eric "Silo" Dahl will be the pro, and he is billed as the "#1 ranked profesional eater" (without any qualifications). It is not clear if Dahl still merits the top ranking among AICE/APE competitors after Stephanie Torres' victory in an Arizona contest Saturday where he was a no-show. update The phrasing has been changed to "#1 Ranked Professional Eater as ranked by All Pro Eating" (via email)
