Pat Bertoletti finishes Sasquatch burger
The Memphis Flyer reports that Pat Bertoletti was the first person to finish the 7 pound (4 lb of meat) Sasquatch burger at the Big Foot Lodge in Memphis. Pat stopped at the Big Foot Lodge on his way to New Orleans to break the Acme Oyster House record and his time of 11:05 is less than 1/5 of the hour allowed.
The burger in the “Big Burger Girl” picture (from a July post) is most likely a Sasquatch burger because the picture is tagged with “Memphis” The photographer claims the unknown trencherwomen finished her burger in the picture comments, but this would not count because it took place outside the restaurant.

Just give me the burger. The burger girl can double as the fries.

Congrats to my fantasy competitive eating team leader! Too bad we don’t get points for completing restaurant challenges. Trust me, I tried because I know Pat likes those things. Next up, Denny’s and the 10 pounder?

This was before the restaurant challenge ban when into effect. Besides, Pat eats like this all the time he walks into a restaurant and always orders giant food. Pat is an a$$ kickin’ dent pounding machine.

Huey, please explain this “restaurant challenge ban” that you speak of? I am unaware.

the ifoce cares about the safety of its eaters, so in the best interest of the eaters the ifoce does not want the eaters doing restaurant challenges. glad they are looking out for the eaters.

That was quite a feat. I attempted to eat it, when I was in Memphis for the Krystal Burger qualifer. I was less than a pound away, when time expired.
The Fries were optional.

I don’t believe the Big Daddy Barrick Burger Contest is gone.Possibly posponed till a later date.
If it does happen it will be One of the biggest Table Wars of all time.

I have been around Sonya only twice in the past year, and on both occasions she seemed really nice and easy to talk to. How she is able to change her focus to all business during the contest is beyond me.

yeah, i’m sure it’s a “safety of their eaters” thing.

I agree Ray. Big Daddy would be a real classic. Of all contests, I feel that THAT’s the one that separates the men from the boys, because strategy is almost as important as stomach capacity. The smartest eaters have the advantage, assuming they have the capacity to begin with.
Since Wingador likes to eat for 30 minutes, I wonder why he doesn’t show? (No, I really don’t.)

i wonder when the ifoce will send out an email saying eaters cannot eat anything ever unless it is in a sanctioned event. that cereal for breakfast, no your daily breakfast is not an event sanctioned by the ifoce. no more thanksgiving meals because those are not ifoce sanctioned events.

STORK, you’re confusing me. Earlier you appeared to praise the IFOCE for “looking out for the eaters”, but now you are critical. Unless there was some sarcasm in your previous comment that I missed, what is your true stance?
Mad Stork said
February 8, 2007 @ 1:31 pm
there wasnt SOME sarcasm in my first comment. it was ALL sarcasm. i know people like joey and pat will go along blindly with whatever the ifoce mandates, and maybe even some other of the signed eaters but what does a #46 or #49 get out of it that is worth it?

Mad Stork they get a stupid rank and if their lucky a picture on the ifoce website. Wow!! The whole federation seems to be designed top heavy with prize money, mainly for the top ten eaters. And your media clowns like Dale Boone and some of the other eaters. Yes I bet they make you sign a contract but unlike the NBA you get no money.= No Love!! So much for the #46’s and # 49’s.

It does bother me a little when I have to PAY for food instead of getting paid to eat it.
The Shea’s will soon make the eaters not only sign a contract but force them to buy ifoce/mle food ala Jenny Craig. It will all be from CURRENT sponsors. So, it will be a healthy diet of Nathan’s dogs, Krystal burgers, Wienerschnitzel Pretzels or cheese fries. This diet is sure to make all eaters resemble the Ed’s squared or Booker within a yr or two.

That’s not a swipe. If the two of them don’t acknowledge that they are fat who can…Uribe?!
Even, when I was at my low I was still fat.
