Eating contests and Eating challenges around Kona & Denver



Ultimate Burgers!

Here are some photos from the qualifying for the Ultimate Burger eating contest in Kailua Kona on the Big Island of Hawaii...


This is what is up:

The contest was an All Pro Eating event I guess...


After a while, heat #1 was going to go...


The winner of the heat, and of the qualifier, is the guy 2nd from the left...



Here are the burgers. They were big. But so good. Only the big buttered buns and meats. The patties were cooked a perfect medium rare. 1/2 pound? 1/3 pound?




Tradition after all contests or challenges...

There was another heat in which the guys in 2nd qualified. Of the 8 who attempted to eat the 5 burgers, only 4 people did:

Bennie Ningeok-Ross 7:31
Mitch Milner 8:04
Andrew Lane 12:19
Dylan Springmeir 17:48

The finals are in October. Between now and then, on Wednesdays, people can attempt to qualify for the finals by coming in UB.

The ice cream is a great tradition. I've always found that a little ice cream (or a lot) goes a long way toward soothing any post-contest queasiness.

Does it have to be soft-serve vanilla or will any ice cream do?

Munch, it's gotta be vanilla soft serve for sure! DQ, McDonald's, that doesn't matter so much but vanilla soft serve. It's like spackling to fill in the holes...
