OT Big TEXAN 72oz Part 34 Urgent NOW!

[Chin Diesel]

They really need to upgrade that feed.

That is part of the "charm"??

 

[Chin Diesel]

The greatest opening in TV history.

Gotta love the off season.

Texas Tech is in Lubbock. That is less than 2 hrs from Amarillo and “across town” by Texas distance

Definitely a night out distance, akin to heading up to a Red Sox game and coming home late.

While watching Ted Lasso, I actually mapped out a trip that could include the Big Texan, Sisemore's RV Museum, Cadillac Ranch, the Helium Monument, and maybe even Palo Duro Canyon, though that's best in summer when you can see Texas, the Musical. There's a good size adult store near Big Texan too.

Need the Simpsons avi back man.

Need the Simpsons avi back man.

Agreed, but I forgot how to reload it when I tried to bring it back after the Tournament. I feel like I need tech support, so I stepped away from feeling dumb on the matter.

I'm glad the Louisville banner disappeared, but it did serve its mojo purpose in securing NC #5.

If the Big12 was in Amarillo I would say to sign us up!

The greatest opening in TV history.

Best part of the story is that the guy retired to his little village in Slovenia, and for years never knew he a celebrity of sorts in America.

“The melodrama of the narration—which became a catchphrase in the US—transformed the uncredited ski jumper into an American icon of bad luck and misfortune. Meanwhile, having retired to his quiet, private life in Slovenia, Bogataj was unaware of his celebrity, and so was surprised to be asked to attend the 20th anniversary celebration for Wide World of Sports in 1981.[2] He received the loudest ovation of any athlete introduced at the gala,[2] and attendees such as Muhammad Ali asked him for his autograph.[1]”

Is today the day? I have a good feeling. The grill is heated up we are heading into lunch time, do we get an early entry who fasted all last night?

[Kolumbo]

Thinking about lunch. Looks like a father/son team getting some quality time with the boxes of shame.

Ah the old put a raw steak on the grill and then use the same tongs to take off a steak and serve it...

 

[Kolumbo]

We've got Billy Ho coming out of retirement. White Men Can't Chomp. He's got a pretty good pace though 20 minutes in.

 

[Deepster]

James Webb just put up the second best time in the history of the challenge. 6 minutes and 28 seconds. Yes. You read that right.

Did he cut the steak into 10 oz. pieces and swallow them whole?

Some highlights. Animal

 

[mussels]

Guy’s sort of approaching annoying show off.

Wasn’t enough he did the egg head space telescope thing, he’s also got to show he can out “man of the people” us mere mortals with his extraordinary meat eating talent.

Have to admire him, but still…

First he develops a telescope that gives us views of the universe here to for Unknown and now he shatters the big Texan record. Is there no end to his gifts to mankind.

Lol, look at the other dude's plate who's sitting with him. He's had like two bites by the time Webb hits the clock. Amazingly, that was only the second fastest time in Big Texan history.

 

[CL82]

We got a "slow but steady" there now

He won't get there. You can already see he is full of steak... and regret.

The event has an 11% success rate. It's not unworldly to beat it. The way August was blowing it up I thought 4 people ever had beaten it. It's like 11,000.

100,000 people tried? This has to be one of the more successful promotions ever.

It's been going on for 50+ years.
