'Humble Bob' breaks spaghetti-eating record
A man nicknamed “Humble Bob” stuffed himself with 11.5 pounds of spaghetti in 10 minutes to claim victory in an eating contest.
Bob Shoudt won $2,500 (€1,700) at the inaugural Skyline Chili Spaghetti eat-off in Ohio.
“Humble Bob” dashed to an early lead, sucking down more than two pounds in less than a minute.
He is ranked No. 5 by the International Federation of Competitive Eating.
He did so well at vacuuming up the pasta mixture that he narrowly beat the federation’s top-ranked competitive eater, Joey Chestnut.
Chestnut won this year’s July 4 hot dog-eating contest at New York’s Coney Island with 59 dogs in 10 minutes.
