Whitlow's On Wilson's Labor Day 2010 Burger Eating Contest September 6, 2010

Hungry for glory? 6-8 contestants will compete in Whitlow's On Wilson's Labor Day 2010 Burger Eating Contest by eating as many Whitlow’s ½ pound burgers without fixings in 15 minutes. Winner will win ½ price burgers for a 3 months (anytime), and an embroidered Whitlow’s Polo shirt!

Rules:
Eat as many Whitlow’s ½ pound Burgers without fixings in 15 minutes.
The contestants will start with 3 burgers and once they are cleared another 3 will be presented to them.
Contestants must observe “WOW Burgerdom Rules” which means that the burgers will be eaten without separating, dunking, mushing, mashing or deconstructing the delicious and beautiful Whitlow’s Burger. Should an Eater be observed violating ‘Burgerdom Style Rules’ he/she will be deemed guilty of "Burgerdom Profanity" and will be disqualified. Accidental and/or incidental separation will be overlooked.
Contestants who suffer “reversal of fortune” AKA “regurgitation” will be disqualified, and possibly mocked. Contestants must keep the burgers submerged for a period of three minutes after the contest is over.
The "Squirrel Rule" will be in effect, which means that no stuffing Burger-matter in ones mouth at the very end of the contest will be allowed. This rule will be enforced by only allowing an additional 30 seconds to swallow the remaining food. Contestants who are found to be in violation of the "Squirrel Rule" will be penalized a 1/2 burger.
In the event of a tie the winner or top three finishers will be determined by an AVALANCHE BURGER "Eat-off". The AVALANCHE burger consists of; double cheese, bacon, mushrooms, grilled onions, lettuce, and tomatoes. Creative participation is strongly encouraged but good sportsmanship is required.
Judges will determine final amounts eaten by increments of 1/4, 1/3, 1/2, 3/4. Decision by Judges is final. All contestants are required to check in 30 minutes prior to the contest
