And I learned that there is an organization called Major League Eating (MLE). I thought MLE was what fat a$$es, and people who smell like them, did in the lots on gameday.

The MLE is probably lower for those that participate in MLE.

In a contest at Fort Bliss, Chestnut wound up eating one fewer dog in five minutes than the winner of the Nathan's event did in ten.


Oh, yes, I'm the Great Pretender

MLE needs a Don King type promoter. One on One eating competition (multiple foods) between Chestnut and Kobayashi in prime time.
