    Lerman had an urge contrary to swallowing.

    as expected Menchetti blows out the field. Boone must be having second thoughts about letting him into the WLOCE

    Shows you what a joke this contest is. Lerman throws up and they award him third place. What is third place anyhow?

    According to Lermans blog which in my opinion violates all prescribed standards of speech and writing, he claims to have never puked. At some point in the video it clearly shows that he did puke

    I said I didn’t puke it was Phlegm and you don’t like my site don’t bother reading it and if you think that you can do better you should enter next time and use your real name , your just a yes man and a stooge.

    this is Don Lerman again all it shows is my head in the bucket, your claim that I puked does not hold up it was phloem not puke.

    Lerman the proof is right in the picture You need a gallon puke bucket to heave some flem? Get real . Its like taking a lie detector test finding out your guilty and still denying it

    Some people really need to get a life and grow up. Imagine a 60yr old man losing sleep for the next week wondering if the competive eating worlld will believe whether or not he threw up after a contest that he came in third place with no prize money involved. I dont believe my eyes! Call an amublance immediately

    Anon1043 thats what they gave me to spit in a bucket , anyway the contest was over 21/2 min at that point so its a moot issue , the picture doest;t show anything but my face in the pail

    Just give Lerman a day or two and he will figure out a reason that he shouldnt have lost by putting the blame on someone else . Already the hints are inevitable as displayed on his current update claiming that the curry title was almost his.

  21. Oh yes i know said

    I could not sleep last night trying to figure out if Lerman puked in the pale or let out some flem which he claims is the gods honest truth . Here is the real truth. Lerman was eating curry directly out of the pale. Yes he was. He is too much of a sport to admit it but Don is used to eating that way shoveling it in like dog food or baked beans. Don do not be bashful. You can “spill the beans”

    Congratulations Joe. Dale and Don, you two did an excellent job, and battled it out. It certainly was not a runaway.

    Don, you owe no one any response, especially not anonymous troublemakers. Your reputation precedes you.
