Krystal Eaters Square Off On Fox 5 Good Day Atlanta

September 3rd, 2008 Posted in Qualifying Tour

The Krystal restaurant in Buckhead Atlanta was the scene of a televised three-man Krystal eating contest this morning between Super Paul Barlow, Ben “The Turtle” Griffith and Steve “Pi Guy” Martin.

The two-minute contest was a part of Fox 5 Good Day Atlanta’s preview of this Saturday’s Krystal Square Off V Qualifier at Lenox Square Mall in Atlanta, which will feature the number-two ranked eater in the world Pat Bertoletti. The winner on Saturday will go on to compete at the Krystal Square Off V World Hamburger Eating Championship in Chattanooga on Sept. 28.

With Fox 5’s Mark Hyman and Krystal’s Kenny Hammontree on hand to officiate this morning, the contest ended up as a draw between Super Paul and Griffith, with both Atlanta-based eaters downing nine Krystals. Martin, a math teacher, ate just seven.

    3. Dale Boone Says:

      Dale Boone, the competitive eater of Atlanta, is returning to the Corn-Dog-A-Rama in Atlanta as “The World Champion.” This year he will no doubt destroy his competition by eating his way to historic victory at Saturdays Corn Dog eating contest 6:00 PM at 470 Flat Shoals Avenue in the heart of the East Atlanta Village. Last year’s event, the 303 pound Boone set a corn dog record, eating 17 in five minutes. The World League of Competitive Eating (WLOCE) welcomes Mr. Dale Boone to the event, as the reining champion and is truly, the one to try to beat.
