Wigan (UK) pie contest survives act of dog
The BBC reports that Adrian Frost won a meat pie eating contest in Wigan, England. The contest was threatened after a dog ate many of the competition pies the day before the event, but enough replacement pies were produced. The dog, Charlie, was allowed to repeat his gluttony in the contest:
“The twist is that Dave has turned up this morning saying he wants Charlie to enter the contest.
“We’ve nothing in the rules to say dogs can’t compete so he will be lining up against the other pie eaters and judging by his performance yesterday he’s got a great chance of winning.”
However, it seems that Charlie was still full from Wednesday’s mammoth eating session as Mr Williams revealed that he did not even finish his competition pie.

The dog was wearing a coonskin cap, and threatened to bite the judges if not allowed in the contest. The dog’s mother watched in silent horror, as the coonskin capped dog then barked his fool head off, wet on the tablecloth, and demanded that the pies he ate the day before counted in his contest totals. As a result of this canine craziness, the dog has been thrown out of the AICEE (Alliance of Independent Canine Eaters of England).
