Crazy Legs Conti wins Hooters Indianapolis wing eating qualifier
update The top 3
1) Crazy Legs Conti 148 wings
2) Tim “Gravy” Brown 101 wings (more weight than Aaron Osthoff)
3) Aaron Osthoff 125 wings (not 100% happy with the judging)
update Apr 19 If the reported amounts are accurate, there was a big discrepancy in the competitors’ weight per wing.
1) Conti 48 oz / 148 wings = .324 oz (9.1 g) / wing
2) Brown 17 oz / 101 = .168 oz (4.7 g) / wing
3) Osthoff 16 oz / 125 = .128 oz (3.6 g) / wing

Why won’t they tell us what the totals were by weight? Obviously they weighed them because they bumped Aaron down to third in spite of the fact that he ate a greater number of wings than Tim Brown did.

The weights were announced at the contest. A-train 1 lbs., Gravy a little over 1 lbs. And CLC over 3 lbs.

This is topic is full of hilarious and mostly TRUE comments. Dam funny stuff. Truth… MLE will twist, turn, and show favoritism, plainly lie about results to fit there needs. They feel they need to have CLC and Sonya @ Hooters for advertising so they cheat other eaters. MLE (Major Liars of Eating) results are bogus.

Wheres is the video of this manipulated event? Will we see one? Prob not after the other Hooter qualifier video clearly shows Sonya with a pan full of uneaten wings at the end.

I was at a Nathan’s qualifier last year when Jason came up short. I think it really lit a fire under him when he failed to go to Coney last year to step up his game. That’s good for the sport. If Conte can continue this trend, I’m going to ask OJ for a poll of the greatest competitive eating comebacks. Even though I still say it was rigged, El Wingo besting Sonya in their second match up would be in the running? Kobi against Joey at Krystals? Joey against Kobi at dumplings in Asia. Book’s probably had several comebacks in his career? Hell, I’d even be willing to give Beautiful Brian props when it comes to comebacks in pickles? Cookie beating Sonya in a match play wing eat off at Hooters? I’ll bet the old timers might have quite a few nominations when it comes to comebacks.
Nice guys finish last. said

A-train,
don’t congradulate a guy who just cheated you out of $1k and a spot in the finals. Welcome to the “get fcked over by CLC club”… I’m sorry 2 really cool guys (You and Gravy) had to waste your time, money and effort.
like mentioned above… Interesting how CLC is an elite eater in debris food, yet in non debris food he gets his ass handed to him by locals.
business as usual for MLE.

What does it matter. They wanted Crazy Legs in the finals especially because its in NYC. No harm to that knowing that Joey Pat or Sonya will annihilate him anyway so whats the big deal?

Thats not nice . You are asking A-train to go from a classy guy to an unclassy guy. I am sure he is pissed but let him keep those thoughts to himself which is what good guys normally do

Less then a week ago a contest runs out of food and now this happens? Where is the outcry from all the people who had something to say about records and that the MLE should be the be all end all for comp eating? It would be great to hear their take on all this – I am guessing theyre all pretty upset and if totally unbiased will have plenty to say! Atrain got screwed and is showing great restraint!

If anyone believes for a second that ATrain and Gravy only each ate 1 pound of wings in 10 minutes you need your head examined.

Congrats to Legs! I always knew he was omnitalented in wings. I think this was perhaps his best performance in any food to date!
If I were his manager, I’d have him knocking on the door of the top 10, just by avoiding certain foods/contests, in which his limiting factor (stomach capacity) comes into play, and focusing on those in which he can use his strength (hand speed).
He will be a force in corn. I have him finishing in the top three, regardless of who’s there. His hand speed will get him far, and since corn on the cob is so very subjective, Legs could pull a major upset over elite eaters.

This anony APE joker is cracking me up chiming in regularly about how jealous he is of the MLE and it’s eaters. I mean he has his shitsandwich of an eating organization and has such little understanding of competitive eating he doesn’t get that Hooters weigh the wings. They could care less about Conte. Calling Sonya a cheater is priceless too, what after 10 years of phenomenal eating she suddenly decides to cheat at a contest she clearly was heads and shoulders over the competition? The funniest thing is he doesn’t understand that everyone knows he’s with APE and how very sad he and his organization looks. Look buddy, MLE has Hooters, Pizza Hut, Nathan’s, and all the top companies and eaters in the world. That’s the way the independent ESPN’s and Associated Press’s of the world see it. So, get over it because it ain’t going to change. Be happy that APE’s got some crappy food processing company holding a chicken salad contest with MLE rejects and wannabes breaking made up records no one cares about. But if you want, keep writing in, it’s pretty entertaining to watch a dumbass be a dumbass.

IF Gravy and Atrain eat 1/3 of CLC total weight in a MLE/IFOCE “competition” (sure) no matter what it is, its fricken…. well I don’t know,,, but its fricken something!? lolsssssss lb.?????
lb.? Really???? lossssss are these accurate? Not a FN chance these are legit numbers if they are, both G and A should retire asap? A competitive eater eating 1 lb. in 10 minutes? lolssssss
Do Gravy and Atrain now belong to M(minor)LE. lolssssssss LMFAO MLE really crapped on them hard.
Hmmmm another 140 ish total? Whoa nelly sounds amazingly close to the farce MLE put on at Hooters in Augusta on 4/5/12, the drama is certainly building for them finals. lolsss
Hey 1:09pm I’m sorry did I miss the weight from April 5, 2012 Hooters wing thingy that they gave to Sonya,,,, what was the weight those 148 nibble on wings? Post the weight buddy. I know i don’t know as much as you so please post the weight totals for the event in Augusta. Even if they were/are available they would be made up by IFOCE/MLE. Hmmm So who cares whether its weight or numbers. Glad you agree.

April 19, 2012 @ 3:34 pm
Bobby Trendy, yes I do agree that you don’t know anything. If you actually don’t think Sonya can eat 140 wings keep arguing. I guess you’re going to say her entire career never happened either. She never ate 65 hard boiled eggs. Nope. She never ate 47 dozen oysters. Didn’t happen. Pounds and pounds of hotdogs. All made up. You are an idiot. Over the last ten years Sonya has eaten consistently way over 140 wings in weight — five years at Buffalo. In fact, Hooters was a slow day for her. Keep trying to say Sonya cheated. I want everybody to see what a complete moron you are. If you think you’re helping Aaron or Gravy they’re probably at home reading this saying STFU you idiot, you accusing Sonya of cheating makes any arguments on their behalf look idiotic. And, if Gravy or Aaron want to go to another qualifier, their chances are becoming less and less with friends like you. MLE wouldn’t give them a bid in fear that a dope like you would show up to the contest. I’ll give you sometimes wings get misweighed, it clearly happened when they gave Pat 11 lbs in Dallas. I don’t think Pat cheated, but the judges had their heads up their butts. If that was the case with Conte, well it happens. But taking it personal and accusing Conte of cheating — wow you are nuts dude!

Whats the weight of the wings Sonya ate at Augusta on 4/5/12? You stated @ 1:09 Pm “I mean he has his shitsandwich of an eating organization and has such little understanding of competitive eating he doesn’t get that Hooters weigh the wings” So whats the weight of 148 nibbled on wings? 128 wings = 1 lb.? Conti is a cheater thats old news and documented in video… no denying that. In the contest recently at Hooters I never said either cheated they showed up and accepted the false number or weight MLE decides on to “choose” a winner or a record. Its just entertainment. Read my lips “MLE is guilty” of lying, manipulating and fixing contest to further interest in both the upcoming contest and to further the MLE brand. Hello…Don’t you get it? If you are are “in” on the scam and benefit you don’t say sh** that is what they are guilty of but thats the nature of MLE’s bogus contest. CLC cheat… that would be outrageous… lmao….. Do you think pro wrestling is real too?

One more thing Bobby Butthead, still want proof Sonya can eat at least 140:
http://www.myfoxdc.com/dpp/news/virginia/black-widow-sonya-thomas-eats-183-chicken-wings-in-new-york-eating-contest-090511
The Associated Press copyrighted story says she can eat 183 wings. So now Bobby, is the largest, most accurate news organization in the world is lying, cheating too? Hmm, let’s see who’s likely to be more accurate Bobby or the Associated Press? I’m going to have to go with the AP on this one. Or, could it be Bobby is lying and cheating about other people’s integrity because Bobby has no integrity. Writing things he knows nothing about. I’ll tell you what Bobby, before you make a bigger ass of yourself, and your ass stain starts rub off on others (Aaron and Gravy), just go away. Or perhaps, you could go start your own website DUMBASSFEATS.COM and post your garbage there.

@ Crazy for Legs said, you and your mle faithful can go fuck yourselves, mr. conti has been cheating and/or has been given preferential treatment for years. This has all been at the expense of others. Funny the last time A-train ate 1 lb of wings in a contest the time limit was two min. It’s all scripted bullshit, but only a few know the story the rest are victims. I agree there have been mistakes by judges BUT mr conti is out of hand, he should grow a pair and step down. This will never happen because he is the golden boy of the sheas.

BOBBY HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE TO TELL YOU! HOOTERS’ PEOPLE WEIGHS THE WINGS! Take it up with them if you have a problem with the results! If you have some vendetta against pretty women hostesses serving tasty wings and beer go for it. Now, you’re really getting nutty. MLE is fixed? Yes Bobby, I see it now for years upon years, countless of top world respected media organzations (CNN, ESPN, AP, Reuters, etc.) and the MLE have been in a vast right chicken wing conspiracy putting on and reporting fake competitive eating contests. And, only the reknowned Bobby Trendy, AKA APE Man, armed only with his tin foil hat he uses to communicate with the APE people has uncovered this tragedy against humanity. Yes, Bobby you are so wise, every sport is entertainment to make money. However unworthy we all are, teach us all your wisdom. Please go on and teach us how it is the word of organizations like the truth seeking APE and the reknowned unchastened WLOCE that can be trusted. Oh, and how dare we question that the great Bobby insinuated that anyone (Conte, Sonya) was cheating. It was all the evil MLE and the media that covers the MLE? I’m just confused why everyone doesn’t see Bobby’s greatness and pure unselfish motives?

I tweeted last night out of frustration and I should have slept on it before I reacted. That was out of character for me so that is the reason I deleted the tweet. Congrats to Crazy Legs Conti! I wish him the best as well as any other competitors who make the finals.
I already put this behind me and look forward to more fun on the circuit.
