Pat Bertoletti in Northwestern University paper
The Northwestern University student paper has an article about Pat Bertoletti. The article gets the 2006 corned beef contest in Boston, which Bertoletti won, mixed up with a 2004 Milwaukee competition, where he finished behind Cookie Jarvis and Molly Cary.
Determined to show the world the pizza eating contest was a fluke, he registered immediately in a corn beef n’ cabbage competition in Boston.
Without hesitation, Bertoletti hopped on a flight from O’Hare and headed east. He, unlike a few of the other world-renowned eaters, wasn’t sponsored at the time. All expenses came out of his pocket. If he planned to break even on his trip, he would need to place in the contest.
His finish improved, but he still only took third. Bertoletti had a problem: he was smoked by a girl. Bertoletti says while laughing, “I got killed by a girl, man, who has never done anything. I was kicking myself, dude.”
