    The guarantor is funny, so it the previous commenter, all anonymous including me. Taking an EMT along for lunch is kind of a big clue about whether or not he got MLE approval.

    Of course it was a setup. Conti never participates in eating challenges unless its MLE approved

    Well is that unusual?, an MLE eater who follows the rules of the contract? Was that a criticism 2:37 am? What does a set-up mean?

    Detecting a little jealousy 6:28 am. As GJoe once said, it is not that Conti seeks the camera, the camera finds him. People want Conti because he is entertaining, smart and also happens to be polite and understands about product and sponsor placement. He has even been nice to some of the lesser nice eaters, you are likely one of them. You do not have to be in the top ten to contribute to competitive eating.

    LOTS OF JEALOUSY. That’s right. The media seek him out. CLC remains the most entertaining person in competitive eating. Anyone who proclaims to dispute that is lying to himself or a trouble maker.
