Why on earth would it be a good idea to do an eating contest in a country where already 70 million adults are obese an 100 million are overweight?

Death by Taco🌮

Am I the only one wondering about the number of tacos? Also I feel like all the tacos you could eat at a baseball game would be an okay way to leave this world.

Yikes!

This is just sad ☹️ going to a ball game and then dying after?

Did someone yell “ICE”?

Isn't that what almost killed Michael Douglas?

WAS IT DevinCow ?

Damn, this is a disastrous season for the Fresno Grizzlies.

I'm honestly surprised these eating contests are even legal. People get extremely sick and do sometimes die.
