    After eaters drop enough food and step on it the restaurant will be renamed “In a Tough Spot Sole Food.”

    Are many expected for this? Tempting to make the flight out…

    If only I wasnt 14 weeks out from my bodybuilding natural pro qualifier..

    still, very tempting. I might have to wait until December and on to break into the sport fully.

    Being that it’s going on the same time as the Buffalo Wing Festival and the day before Chili Spaghetti I think a lot of the higher ranked eaters might be spread out a bit. There was an “enormous amount of interest” for Buffet Bowl.

    That was kinda what I was figuring. There are alot of major events in that 5 day span

    If I could make to to Brooklyn, I’d probably bail on Chili Spag for Cheese Steaks. Although, I’m hoping to see Bob win at King’s Island again.

    I think Crazy Legs and Janus will most likely be there. It’d be easier to guess who else if they announced the purse.

    It will be my second within this month(Aug-Sept). Funnel Cake was my first.

    I assure you I will be around for a while. I just have to find a balance between bodybuilding and competitive eating :p This will most likely be my last contest before my 2 shows in November, and after that it’s off season time and I will hit the circuit full swing.

    The IFOCE off season is usually during that time. Contests started up again in February with Crawfish and March with Corned Beef on Rye, those were the only contests for those months.

    My off season will be over a year until I compete again, as I need to bring up a few areas and add about 10lbs =) Feb/March…all next year will be 100% open for me.
