    Here is part 1 of the video, which shows the taco:

    Tim said animals such as dogs and bears are allowed to win the contest as well. I know a bear handily beat Kobayashi in bunless hot dogs one time,so it could happen here too.

    Chipmunking is allowed according to Tim. So if you just shove everything in your both before time expires, you win, even if it takes a while for you to swallow.

    Pat made a few mistakes, which slowed his time:

    a. He used a utensil.
    b. He mixed the sour cream in.
    c. He drank water for the taco, and waited until the end to drink the Joy Juice
    d. He did not chipmunk.

    I can foresee a number of eaters beating Pat’s time, including Molly, Kobayashi, Dave, Bob, Jamie, and possibly Stephanie Torres, Wayne, Tom, Randy, Teddy, and Erik Lamkin.

    I think non MLE eaters are too talented to be under the suppression of a pitiful contract. Another league is about to take over in a major way! You heard it here first.

    If it were in California, Molly wouldn’t have to travel far either. Do you think you can beat her? I would love to see you try!
