The International Federation of Competitive Eating (IFOCE) showcases some of the biggest names in the high-stakes world of competitive eating this Wednesday afternoon with a popcorn-eating contest at Hollywood and Highland.
Reigning champion Crazy Legs Conti (seven bags of popcorn in 12 minutes) will put his title on the line against the likes of world chili-eating champion Rich LeFevre (1 ½ gallons of chili in 10 minutes) and IFOCE 2003 Rookie of the Year Sonya “The Black Widow” Thomas (46 dozen oysters in 10 minutes).

I spoke with nancy and she was very apologetic about the mix-up. They are considering refunding my waterproof suit in exchange for live coverage from the contest. Stay tuned for updates.
