137 Wings In 12 Minutes? Yeah, He Wins

[Zim Hosein]

BUFFALO, N.Y. -- Eating 137 chicken wings in 12 minutes is not about stomach capacity, he says. But can't it help just a little when you weigh 420 pounds?

In a major upset in the world of competitive eating, Eric Booker, of Long Island, put away 10 more wings than tiny Sonya Thomas, of Alexandria, Va., better known as the "Black Widow" of the circuit.

The 105-pound Thomas was the favorite in the National Chicken Wing Festival in Buffalo Saturday.

Thomas won last year. She's also the taco-, oyster- and bratwurst-eating champion of the world.

But Booker won over the crowd of 7,500 with some rap lyrics before getting down to business. He washed down the wings with gulps of water and iced tea.

Twenty minutes later, the Black Widow was spotted eating potato chips.

She said, "I'm still hungry."

137 Wings In 12 Minutes? Yeah, He Wins :Q

there's no weight advantage in these competitions. the heavier guys don't necessarily win the contests. kobayashi won the hot dog eating contest, with the black widow in second place. booker participated as well, but even his weight didn't bring him to the top.

surprisingly, the biggest winners in these competitions are the very skinny asian types.

- June 8, 2005, LA, CA (co-owned with Rich "The Locust" LeFevre): 9 1/2 large boxes of (MTV Movie Awards) Popcorn in 10 minutes.

- August 7, 2004, Centerville, Indiana: 84 Lumber World Baked Bean Championship: 8.4 lbs. of Baked Beans in 2 minutes, 47 seconds. (Please note that Don "Moses" Lerman has the World Record for consuming 6 pounds of beans in the shortest amount of time: a mere 1'48!)

It's seriously un-holy on how much they can eat and still be so slim.

There should be an OWNED pic with him standing next to the toilet, looking at it for relief.
