The Austin Ice Cream Festival twitter claims that Joey Chestnut will compete at the festival on August 14. The contest web page makes no mention of Chestnut or IFOCE affiliation for the eating contest.

    Pepto-Bismol is one of the sponsors. Ergo………must be one of the big pay days to which Joey referred in an interview about how much money he makes.

    Lazylegs Monty will need freezer bags inside his gloves. Plus, the hot coffee dunking, and tabletop heat lamp should help his totals immensely – Chestnut should be concerned.

    Ice Cream Eating Contest

    The first 30 people to sign up at the festival will compete for the honor of being the Austin Ice Cream Festival ice cream eating champion. Can you beat 6 and a half minutes? You’d better start practicing now. Sign at the Festival. Not responsible for brain freeze. Must be 18 years or older. $10 per entry.

    The above is from the website for the Festival. There are other contests as well, not eating. Click where it says contest web page above.

    I asked them via twitter about IFOCE not being shown anywhere on their website and this was the conversation:
    @SouthAustin Are you sure Chestnut is competing? I dont see anything about IFOCE about your contest?

    SouthAustin @WreckingBall911 Yes! What is IFOCE? He is coming with Major League Eating.
