NEWS AND NOTES

2010-02-16: King Cake results from the Showboat Hotel and Casino in Atlantic City (each King Cake was 12 Ounces):

  • Pat "Deep Dish" Bertoletti: 14 King Cakes (Pat is the Bread and Sweets King!)
  • Sonya "The Black Widow" Thomas: 10.5 (I cannot complain. I did well, but I wish Pat had stayed in Chicago this time.)
  • Notorious B.O.B. Shoudt: 9 (The "Humble" one has been on a tear for the last year, rarely losing.)

Note: I remembered these results, but I confirmed them at http://twitter.com/eatingcontest/statuses/9205134093.

2010-02-13: With all the record-setting snow we had in the DC metro area this past week, I'm glad there were no competitions scheduled this past week or last weekend, because I wouldn't have been able to make it. All forms of transportation were shut down in the DC metro area. Here are the record-setting amounts we've had so far this winter ... and the winter's not over: Reagan National Airport, Arlington, VA - 55.9; Dulles International Airport, Chantilly, VA - 72.8." 

2010-02-05: I was saddened to learn that the great Ed "Cookie" Jarvis, the legendary United States competitive eating champion in 2002 and 2003, and lifetime IFOCE supporter, is undergoing cancer-related surgery on 22 Feb 10, according to his Web site at http://www.hugeeaters.com. May he have a complete, timely recovery!
