    According to contract rule in IFOCE , members are prohibited from participating in eating challenges which means the LA Bust is busted. . I urge everyone to copy paste the link to Shea Communications so hopefully they will suspend him. Some people just cannot resist temptation of greed

    US Female doesnt have to worry about getting in trouble by doing eating challenges. Is it just me or does anyone else out there find it quite annoying and arrogant when he sticks his thumb up during the challenge with that fake smile and a load of food in his mouth?

    US Male is one of my favorite competitive eaters. The US Male delivers! (I think that quite often he’s as or more reliable as the US Mail service, itself.)

    LA Beast may do some weird things, but that’s his business. He does have a lot of CE talent, much more than the person who throws stones (out of jealousy and/or resentment).

    I won’t name names, but everyone knows who the trouble-maker is, and the head-games he plays is a solitary affair. He disgraces himself by his willingness to sacrifice the reputations of both the “sport” he claims to staunchly represent, as well as its competitors. I wish that were not the case, but it is, and I wish he’d do something constructive to change it.

    Thank you Rhonda. A perfect summary, no stone throwing needed.

    If US Male and LA Beast, the two losers that never made it to Nathans finals competed in Coney on Saturday here is what we might have expected. “With less than a minute left US Male & LA Beast are fighting desperately for 3rd place.. LA Beast is on his 16th hot dog but struggling to keep 15 down. His head is down . His mouth is full of debris , his fists clenched with both arms adjacent to each other on the table. US Male is grunting aaaaah with a load of debris in his mouth. Too close to call but it appears that LA Beast & US Male have tied for 3rd with 16 Larell clean plates with 17 and BOB with 36 to win it all

    It wasn’t a challenge it was just his dinner.

    Joey Chestnut has also completed this. He holds the record set back in 2008

    Oh no no no it was a challenge. He did not pay for the meal and gave the restaurant publicity and not IFOCE .

    The “loser” is the gentleman (using that term VERY loosely) who uses the aforementioned descriptor for Male and Beast. That is typical of him, as unfortunate as that is. How sad.

    I’m embarrassed for 1:54 AND for most of the visitors to this blog, the vast majority of whom would never stoop to such a low level of disrespect for fellow eaters. Yet, perhaps that’s a step up from the depths of despicability that he has descended to over the past couple of years.

    Are you sure he didn’t pay for the meal? No you are not

    If you look at all the social media outlets the L.a. Beast uses, (Facebook, twitter, YouTube, instagram) not once did he mention anything about The big Texan steak ranch or anything about Major League Eating, or even produce any videos documenting this. He did not promote for either party or even promote anything for himself. He was just driving across country and wanted to make the trip memorable. Leave the guy alone

    Look everyone cut the crap. IFOCE determines what events their eaters can and can’t do, not anyone on this thread. If they have a problem with someone doing the Big Texan then they’ll contact the eater. MLE is often pretty flexible with a lot of eaters. But, if they think you are prick troublemaker they’ll bounce you out of their organization for even the slightest infraction, as is their right. Besides the Big Texan doesn’t really compete with any of their contracted sponsors. The LeFerve’s did it and so did Joey Chestnut. Anyone complaining about something that’s none of their business just seems to be nuts with some screwy personal venedetta. Technically, if IFOCE wanted to they could bounce you out for anything they define as public, such as, oh I don’t know, running a competitive eating website that continually puts a negative light on their organization. What are you going to do? Join APE or the Booney league with three contests a year that no one cares about. Have fun with that.

    Is the person who admitted stalking CLC and later confirmed it (and his oddness) by posting pic’s of what he thinks is CLC on a street supposedly going to a pizza joint with a friend after the Nathans qualifier at coney this past weekend the same man who randomly showed up near US Males home and sat in his car like a retarded spy? The supposed pic of CLC and a friend is very disturbing and voyeuristic as it appears the photographer is driving around and following the legend taking pics of his personal life. I don’t think either event was random… this guy appears to be a creepy weirdo who gets aroused (probably sexually) by certain competitive eaters and when he feels they reject him he stalks the hell out them. Its mucho strange-o

    Hey Rhonda I thought you said you were never posting again? . You change. your mind more than you change your under wear. About as fake as that moniker of yours .

    Rhonda changes her mind about posting and not posting as much as Seiken changes his mind about eating Nathan’s Hot Dogs. She never mentioned a name but evidently Seiken wears that size shoe.

    Seiken never stalked anyone. It just happened to be a coincidence that conti and goldstein were in the area he happened to be at. Stop insinuating trouble low life moron. If youre stalking someone the last ones you want to atalk are two relatively insignificant gluttons

    Let’s not forget that this same stalker just so happened to be shopping at a supermarket in Shredder’s neighborhood. Normal people don’t go 50 miles from home for groceries, unless they live in the woods. Coincidence, i rather think not.

    You all spend way too much time worrying about other people. Don’t you realize that they don’t think about you?

    As you said 7:08, NORMAL PEOPLE. We are not talking about one of those.

    Thank you Rhonda but please keep supporting the US MAIL system too. Don’t give up on them.

    I won’t give up on the USPS, Dave. Overall they do an excellent job.

    I was a bit disenchanted 2 months ago when I priority-mailed (from DC to Jersey) and insured a $2,000 item that took 2 weeks to arrive at its destination.

    I’m all better now, and that was the first time I had an issue with late delivery in several years, so I cannot complain. The USPS is made of humans and we all make mistakes. And you guys don’t make many. 🙂
