    This is an example of odds based upon who the oddsmaker wants to win rather than on who he honestly thinks will win.

    If Brad doesn’t win it will be because of a mental error. Personally, I think he has more wing-eating talent than every other contender, hands-down —- not even close. But whether or not he can stay focused remains to be seen.

    Being focused won’t be an issue for Brad. He just needs to figure out who is going to punch him in his loud mouth first. I’m giving 2 to 1 odds that he is eliminated by the first intermission for fighting. I’m putting my money on butthead or one of his minions to knock his ass out!

    If Brad doesn’t win it it will be because of Karma.

    He’s only been in 2 wing contests I am aware of…. Wing Bowl 16 he DQed… and the other, Buffalo, he got 7th.

    Boy King
    Brad did Buffalo twice. In 2007, he did much better and came in 3rd. If he shows up in that form he’ll do some damage.

    i missed that one… i stand corrected.

    But, with a 2 lb fluctuation from one year to the next…. and oddly the better year was the first try, not the most recent….. I think my odds are pretty fair.

    Brad is hilarious, I’m rooting for him.

    Brad is a tool. Broken Wing will take him to school. Then Brad will look like a fool. In the second round he can sit back and drool. Brad, you are the ass of the pool.

    I’m also rooting for Brad. Before he got DQed in WB a couple of years ago for “snotting a wing,” Brad was kicking ass. Rhea Hughes (WIP) commented during the event that his style was similar to Sonya’s. That’s a high complement, so the boy certainly earned my respect, as he did in his third place 2007 Buffalo finish.

    Loud mouth or not, when it comes to wings, he’s not exactly biting off more than he can chew, as some might hope. I think some of you nonbelieving haters are in for a shocker!

    Yeah, I remember Brad’s Wing Bowl DQ from a few years ago. It was a questionable call, but as Rhonda said, he was kicking ass. If memory serves me, he was in third place (not far behind Joey and Pat) when he was DQ’d.

    I have to tell you, I’ve met Brad a few times and saw him eat directly in WB 16, Broadway at the Beach and ShooFly. WingBowl I actually ate a few plates down from him and was humbled. He’s brash and possibly crazy, I know he pushed himself to DQ more than once and I’m pretty sure he’s the guy that was beating Joey at waffles a few years ago before DQ’ing as an unknown eater (Somebody that was there please fact-check me).

    While I dont think he served himself by talking so much junk (although I havent really heard an account of what he said), Brad’s gonna do things his style and AICE might as well get used to that. Regardless of his words, I’ve seen with my own eyes the volume and intensity that this guy can bring to the table. He is eating with hysteria and emotion.

    Steakbellie’s Prediction: FIRST or DQ. If he can throttle back just enough so that he doesnt puke, he’ll put on a great show. How long is this event? The longer, the more things shift to his favor.

    Steak…

    25 eaters go for 14 min. The top ten from that group eat another 14 min. The top 5 move on to a 2 min final. Total cumulative for the 30 min wins. There is about a 20 – 30 min break between rounds. I do not doubt that Brad can eat and will most likely finish in the top 5, however the impression he made at the ESPN meeting on Monday will go against him. I was there and heard from more than one contestant that they plan on giving up their shot at eating and starting a fight with Brad just to have him DQ’ed. The rules for the event state that any fighting, no matter who instigated it, both parties will be DQ’ed. He should have kept his mouth for eating on Friday, instead of talking down to all the other participants that are happy to be in a local event where everyone gets along and cheers for one another. If he runs his mouth to Six Burgh Psycho, “Captain Butthead” ,The paramedics that are on hand will be needed for sure!

    That rule is awesome.
    Maybe bitch-boy will get what he has coming to him.

    Pitt,
    Thanks for the details! Sounds like a similar format to Phillys Wing Bowl. Have a blast!

    There had better be several video cameras running during the contest. Sounds like something good to watch… The eating contest, of course.

    Is Brad even welcome at AICE, after all the trash he talked on BB’s video?
