Well I finished in the top 32 in mens singles… I beat my first two competitors and when i got down to 32 I had to play my own brother… He’s a better player and he beat me to get into the money… He got knocked out in the next round by a guy they call Scooby… he looks nothing like the dog but maybe he eats like him
I didn’t get to see the chili cheese fry eating competition but i will see who won today… We have draw mixed triples and mens doubles today… I am shooting with my brother

Hope eveyone is having a great weekend…

Brian and Crystal are my most recent victims of an engagement session… This is a quick teaser… We started at Disneyland and after that we went to Angel Stadium. It is in kind of weird being inside of a stadium with no one else there. They just got done laying the grass because they had Supercross there last week. Have a great day!!!

I am shooting in a dart tourneyment this weekend on the Queen Mary in Long Beach… They are having a Scottish Festival and I noticed they were having an eating competition and thought I would stop by and take photos… I really wanted to enter it… I read about Joey Chestnut and he ate 182 hot wings… usually the competition last 10 minutes and that would be crazy if he did that… I will post the photos if i get a chance…

Chili Cheese Fries Eating Championships

February 17, 2007

The best of the best in competitive eating will put on a jaw-dropping show as they contend at the second annual Queen Mary Wienerschnitzel World Chili Cheese Fries Eating Championship on Feb. 17, 2007 aboard the Queen Mary in Long Beach, Calif. The contest is sponsored by Wienerschnitzel, the world’s largest hot dog chain, and sanctioned by the International Federation of Competitive Eating (IFOCE), the governing body of all “stomach-centric sports.” Scheduled from 1 p.m. to 2 p.m., the main contest is preceded by two preliminary events including a Tastee Freez ice cream “neat” eating contest for children and a haggis eating contest for attendees of the annual Scottish Festival taking place that weekend.

The 10-minute, all-you-can-eat headline event will feature Wienerschnitzel’s chili cheese fries and the nation’s finest gurgitators, including the 105-pound defending champion of last year’s chili cheese fries eating contest, Sonya “The Black Widow” Thomas; America’s No. 2-ranked competitive eater, Joey “Jaws” Chestnut of San Jose, Calif.; World Jalapeño Eating Champion, “Jalapeño” Jed Donahue of Huntington Beach, Calif.; and Justin Mih from Irvine, Calif.

This year’s winner will walk away with the first place prize of $4,000. Second prize for the runner-up is $2,500; third is $1,500, and additional cash rewards will be presented to those finishing fourth through sixth. Taking place outside at the Queen Mary, the day will include the energetic competition, prize giveaways, and family-fun activities. All who have purchased Scottish Festival admission tickets or general Queen Mary admission tickets are welcome to view the contests.
