The New York Times archives has a preview from 1906 of a spaghetti contest to be held in Little Italy which is almost certainly a parody. The eaters were to eat lengths of spaghetti ranging from 10 miles to 100 yards.
The only instance of a spaghetti contest in which the pasta was measured by length I am aware of was Donna Maiello’s 1982 record of 100 yards of spaghetti in 27.75 seconds.

I clicked the link and i was about to register for the spaghetti eating contest in belmont ave in the bronk nyc. The entry fee is $1 . It says the contest is tommorow but i realized the date of the article was may 30, 1986 . I guess its over. 21 yrs too late.
