Food.Fun.Stuff: Eat As Many Burgers As You Want…Literally.

[ 0 ] July 1, 2010 | Johnna

Before you fire up your own grill for the weekend, Z-Burger Tenleytown is cooking up the ultimate burger competition to get the festivities started. Today kicks off the Second Annual Independence Burger Eating Championship. Twelve eaters, $4,500 grand prize and FREE burgers and milkshakes for all spectators. Fun times. The burger consumption begins @ noon until 1 pm @ Z Burger Tenleytown. JKGF attended last year and as you can see from the footage here, it was an event to remember…watching as each competitor stuffed their face in hopes of taking home the grand prize. Maybe we can practice this weekend for next years competition…how many burgers can we get in our system before the holiday weekend is over??…
