PIZZA!!!!!!!!!!


So my completely bizarre life continues....

This weekend I will be competing in a pizza eating contest. The contest is in Maryland somewhere and the sponsor is 3 Brothers Pizza. From what I understand they serve super-giant slices and it will be all you can eat for 10 minutes. GB and the boys are taking the trip with me and the boys spent the entire vacation devising strategies to win. (mostly in the devious vein like putting itching powder on the other food, bringing my pizza loving dogs with me, or punching my competitors in the stomach)

I'm very excited because pizza is one of my favorite foods, and I can eat quite abit, given enough time. I'm tempering my anticipation with the knowledge that those two factors may not mean much under game conditions. Foods that seem simple can surprise you, I figure the pizza crust will wear my jaw out pretty fast, and that my mouth and throat will get scratched up pretty good.

It's likely I'll get crushed at this contest. It's the only contest this weekend, it's located in the North East, there's prize money, and it's pizza...all factors in bringing out the best eaters in the country. Luckily I dont mind a good ass-kicking, I was recently ranked by the IFOCE and I want to go and earn the respect of the other competitors and show that I deserve it. Putting up a solid performance..even in last place. I want to be great, but first I'll settle on being good.....

I have a tshirt picked out and the kilt will be clean and ready for battle!

Are you gonna wear the hat? You should, it's sort of an 'Undertaker'look. Chix dig that...

No, the Amish hat is retired. Maybe I'll bust it out again at next year's shoofly. I thought about wearing a different hat to each contest (to pay homage to the food). What's an Italian hat?

Pizza is like sex, even when it's bad, it's still good.

MM: Maybe a chef hat and a curly moustace? I still like the Amish hat....

CoffeeDog: You're soooo right!

Steakbellie,

I will see you Saturday. PA will be well represnted at this contest. Let's sweep all of the prizes and bring them back home. If you could just put the itching powder on the guy with the mohawk, we should be ok.
