How many racks of baby-back ribs can you eat in a single sitting?

Went to Tony Roma's yesterday for their $20 all-you-can-eat rib night with some guy friends. Everyone started out with a full rack of ribs and the server brought out additional racks as requested. I was surprised that I was able to down four full racks until I figured that I'd feel sick if I ate another rack. oh, I figured that someone would ask for pics.

Anyone want to come down and share a meal with me? ;)

Most I've ever done is 3 (and that was mixing in side dishes for flavor.) If I just focused on the ribs I supposed I could maybe do one more rack.

Jeez I'm hungry now.

In my prime I could put down 4 racks easily. However, I've mastered the art of portion control over the past 4 months and I've found I can't eat nearly as much as I used to.

baby is doing well...in fact, I was thinking about how much he eats and it's ASTOUNDING!!

Basic info:
1lb = 16oz
He's 6lbs (or 96oz)

In each feeding, he averages 3oz and feeds every 3hrs. 24/3=8 feedings/day * 3oz/feeding = 24oz/day. 24oz/96oz = 1/4 = He takes in 1/4 of his body weight everyday!!

defintely at least 3 if this was an all you can eat at tony roma's.

But that would probalby mean no side dishes and I can't help but eat their onion block thingy.

The ribs were great! I managed to take home a couple racks for my wife (scored points with that gesture). The restaurant was voted "Best Ribs" in all of Sacramento. I ordered sauteed mushrooms and corn on the cob with the meal.

2ish full racks after a day of doing absolutely nothing. It used to be 3.

Double that if I was actively doing physical work that day.

Edit: Oh and I hate you. Now I have a craving for barbeque ribs...but I'm in g*damn Boston where BBQ doesn't have meaning. Gah if the south is good for anything, it's BBQ & iced tea :D
