Grits eating contest.

http://www.shreveporttimes.com/apps/...GNEWS/70929010

Winner ate 21 lbs of the stuff in 10 minutes. It's a link to a photo gallery. Looking through the gallery, the contestants aren't overweight, and are reasonably fit and thin. It's not the overweight guys who wind up winning these things anymore. It's the skinny guy who you can't believe packs away all that food.

I think it's like a cross between hash browns and cream of wheat (from what I remember). I have only had it once, and that was a few years ago.

Boiled corn. You know people are serious when they have a full subsection of laws concerning it. http://www.scstatehouse.net/CODE/t39c029.htm

I thought this was going to be a video of Belinda Stronach being turned into a Christmas dinner. How disapointing.

Ditto. What kind of sub-par athlete one day thought up: "Man, I suck at everything, except eating. Bring it on."
