I really fell into competitive eating. To tell you the truth. I've always enjoyed eating alot of food because I like the taste of things and out eating say my dad or my mom. Family members are like he is going to get a second plate. But when I realized I should be doing this I ate a 64 oz steak my junior year of college becuase I was afraid I would have to pay for it. If you eat the whole thing you wouldn't have to pay the $40 or whatever it was and I did it in 17 mins. At the time I was like is that fast? They were like, we have never had anyone finish it at the restaurant. Maybe I should look into this and that was the start of this.
