Philly Wing Bowl

[PhillyDeac]

I know the other Philly natives know about the Wing Bowl all too well, for those of you that don't know, it's one of the major eating competitions in the US. It sells out the Wells Fargo Center every year in minutes.

Last year, the famous Takeru Kobayashi won the event, setting a record eating 337 wings.... this year it is SMASHED by a 120lbs mid-western mother of 4 who ate 363 wings.....

“To tell you the truth, I didn’t even think I was going to win this, I was looking and hoping to finish in the top three,” said Schuyler, who was going to catch a flight to Des Moines, Iowa Friday afternoon to compete in the IHOP Pancake Bowl I Saturday, then attempt to defend her title later Saturday afternoon at the Blue Ribbon Bacon Festival.

I mean, really. "Can't believe you guys couldn't keep up. Welp, off to eat some more."

She'll need an Adam Richman-strength toilet after that kind of binge. I did 75 in about 90 minutes once- once- and made a few people in the dorm very angry.

From her wiki:

Later in October Schuyler became the first person to win (and to try) Nebraska Brewing Company's Death Pizza challenge, a five-pound pie covered in sauce made with ghost chili peppers. She finished in 24 minutes, 56 seconds. Since she was the first person to win the challenge, she got to name the pizza, and named it "Molly's Humble Pie."
