Hi, I know 13.5 HDB is not that great when compared to the top eaters, but as this was my first head-to-head contest, and since I am an amateur, I was happy for the most part. I also won $100, Torani syrup, and a t-shirt! The prize was supposed to be free food for a year, but since I lived three hours away, the manager gave me a cash prize instead. I am working on getting the pics up as I write this.
The thing that sucked was the taste of soggy buns became disgusting to me after about 4 minutes. I purposely had to slow down and/or not dunk so I could overcome that taste. I was still hungry after the contest! So it means my technique is lacking, but not my stomach capacity or appetite at this point in my development.
