WTKR: Sonya Thomas to do Norfolk qualifier
WTKR has a preview of Saturday’s Nathan’s qualifier at the MacArthur Center in Norfolk, VA which reports that Sonya Thomas is expected to compete. No other entrants are listed. The article says that truncating the qualifier to 10 minutes could work in Sonya’s favor.

“putting her superior technique ahead of others’ larger stomach capacity” ? You gotta love these writers who are so well informed. Yea, it’s a good thing the contest is only ten minutes so the poor little girl won’t have to eat any longer.

Yeah, if she were to have to eat for an additional 2 minutes, she would likely bust a gut trying to stay up with her much larger-stomached competitors.
Rich, if there were anything that might be an impetus for her to but up some really good numbers, the wording in that article could do the trick.

“The winner will receive the right to represent the United States…” So who are the other qualifiers representing????
Yeah, two less minutes and she has a better chance? Come on, she ate 18 pounds of grits, how much more capicity does she need?

I was at the grits eating contest and Sonya was the only eater to stop before the 10 minutes were up minutes.

HUMOR.
HA. HA.
SONYA THOMAS IS THE ONLY EARTHLING I FEAR OTHER THAN LOONEY SKIP ROONEY FROM THE UNCLE FLOYD SHOW. HER CAPCITY CAN BE MEASURED IN ASTROMICAL UNITS.

I wish Hall or Chip would show up and join Russ in kicking her bee hind. She needs to retire.
