    If Koby wants to be associated with greatness he will have already accepted the offer.

    He seems pretty confident. Even if more IFOCE members decide to jump ship, this guys accomplishments must be respected. Hey he already started working the tootsie rolls! Every champion needs an entourage. With an event like this i think the field is going to be fairly small. 10-15 folks will be successful in a radio stunt, another 5 or 7 will come from the wingoffs. And then the automatic bids like those for previous champions etc. This is a local/national event, meaning if you are not local how the hell are you going to qualify? Any word on any qualifiers that are not held in philly? I think some of those So Cal eaters and other west coast eaters are not being represented. At least we are not shoveling snow.

    The qualifiers are run by the radio station, and they’re not going to pay their people to put on a qualifier outside of a 50 mile (or less) radius. Be glad that they’re not limiting it geographically this year. If your independent butt wants to attend Wing Bowl as an eater, set up a stunt, pay the money for your bus / train / plane ticket, do your stunt successfully, and then travel back for the event that you’re not going to win anyway. Otherwise, YOU’RE NOT GETTING IN!

    Oh, and the shoveling snow remark? At least our area isn’t going to implode in an earthquake, burn up in a wildfire, or slide into the ocean!

    Cutter! shut your stupid mouth!! The west coast has been represented by Chestnut, Lefevre, and Denmark. anybody for west coast can travel to philly and qualify the same way those top eaters did. Damn, stupid people always asking for a handout.

    Cutter sounds like he has lots of CE experience and we should value his input.

    Scissors would be incorrect. I have only recently discovered CE. But maybe he was being facetious anyway. Chestnut, Lefevre, and Denmark will not be representing the west coast in the wing bowl.

    No matter what the case the best eaters will not be represented. I was giving props to Wingador. Some of you are reading way to much into my motivations. There is almost zero chance the winner of the wingbowl will be from west of the mississippi that is all.

    I don’t live in a state with mudslides or earthquakes, but it is dry as cornbread here and hot as ghost peppers sometimes. Yeah i was getting too much play, i was just being captain obvious. This years wing bowl will not be a local event, that is all. If anyone wanted to fly somewhere that is fine, but how many of you all are going to go more than 1000 miles for this event, an event that seems odd enough to qualify for. I mean of course eating 3 lbs of deer penis must mean one is qualified to drink beer, look at tits, and eat 200 wings. Sorry to cause a stir, i was just being obvious that is all.
