    Congrats Hall! I’m glad you hit 60 and not 59 because 60 just sounds so much better!

    Hall told me after the contest he only did 22 in his first Krystal final – now he beats Sonya with 60!…if there is an award for “most improved”, he and Humble Bob are runaway winners – it’s great to see nice guys finish first!

    Just returned from Jacksonville. That heat index felt like over 100 on that sandy beach. It was a pleasure chatting again with both Hall Hunt and Sonya Thomas. I wish Richard Foley made it like planned. He could of possibly climbed in the Senior Tour rankings. For now he remains at #3 with Super Paul at #1.

    Standing next to Sonya after the contest I saw that look in her eye. She was po’ed. That lady has the “Eye of the Tiger” and as Mister T would say I pity the fool who doubts her desire. She looks like she is heading to the finals and will chew up and spit out anyone who gets in her way. Some say look out for Koby and Joey. I say look out for the Black Widow. She is like a shark in the water and the waters have been chumed. It is feeding time.

    Getting back home is bitter sweet. Walked in the door and found out we have to pack our bags again and be ready to leave in a couple days or at least batten down the hatches. Hurricane Hanna is knocking on our door and we are praying for a northern turn.

    I did so good this time I predict a jump in the rankings for myself. I remain ranked #2 in the 2008 Senior Tour and I predict very soon to be ranked somewhere in the Top 50 World rankings.

    In closing heartfelt congratulations to both Hall Hunt and Sonya Thomas. Those two were neck and neck and it was an honor to be standing next to two great champions. Good luck to you both in the finals.

    Hangman, does the senior league include Rich Lefevre? He may look young, but the dude is 63, and should easily be your number 1!

    Sp has nothing against Hayboy. Justs wants him to go away and stop coming to IFOCE events. That’s all any of us want. It is always disturbing to watch Hayboy tote his mom around, and force her to watch him act like a jackass again and again. Hayboy needs to enjoy his new league, and stop being so jealous, like with his obvious comments here. We’ve all tried to be nice to Hayboy until he explodes into yet another temper tantrum.

    Holy crap Hangman, how many times are you going to bore us with your “pat myself on the back” stories? As I once mentioned, you may #8 on the senior tour and I hate to break the news, you are slipping there too. Get with it, you stink!

    Top 50 in the world????? What are you smoking? Do you think you are taking over the pity rank in the top 50 when Philly guy Pete slips down & out? I cannot control my laughter, please stop.

    So when does that heel Rhonda Evans start analyzing Hall Hunts win over Sonya? She must have 50 reasons/excuses to write about.

    HUNGMAN OUT!

    At the Atlanta Krystal’s contest I look forward to very high numbers. I predict even the lowest table ender number will either tie or beat the third place number from Jacksonville.

    Jacksonville was held outside in a very hot and humid setting. A storm had just passed through as we were waiting. It was hard to breath and even harder to eat with the humidity.

    Atlanta will be held indoors in a climate controlled air conditioned setting. One could almost sit in their lazy boy and have high numbers. It will be so relaxed and so much more comfortable than Jacksonville.

    I felt pleased with my numbers in Jacksonville. I improved over last time and that was what I was striving for.

    I predict Pat will shoot for a low number and go for 85. Super Paul very well might break the 25 mark.

    Wow this is like an all star game with Willie Mays & Hank Aaron and the rest of them you can flush down the toilet bowl. Hangman you seem to be extremely proud of your 12 krystal burgers in 8 min. A stupendous performance.

    September 4, 2008 @ 8:53 pm

    BLAH, BLAH, BLAH….somebody wipe my bleeding ears as I read these Hangman posts. 12 Krystals and you talk as if you just won something big. My pet Hamster (whom I named (The Hangster) can eat that many with his tiny buck teeth. GIVE UP…you stink and are falling from the senior league ranks quickly!

    Allow The Hungman to make a bold prediction that Mr. Bruce Pobanz, the copycat Hangman of wrestling, does not even reach 15 Krystals in Atlanta. Take that to the bank. I’ll have to send my people to Atlanta to witness this truly hilarious attempt at competitive eating.

    I am not sure who is a worse eater; Hangman or Carey.

    HUNGMAN OUT!
