NFL | 'Fridge' Loses Eating Contest to 135-Pound Man - from http://www.KFFL.com Tue, 10 May 2005 20:29:01 -0700
The Associated Press reports former NFL DL William Perry badly lost a cake-eating contest Tuesday, May 10, to 135-pound Richard LeFevre, a 61-year-old retired auditor from Henderson, Nevada. LeFevre devoured a 5-pound birthday cake in 11 minutes, 26 seconds to earn the title of "World Cake Eating Champion." Perry, known as "The Refrigerator" during his playing days, started strong but had eaten less than a quarter of his cake when LeFevre finished, and wound up in last place. It was Perry's first sanctioned event since a poor showing at a hot dog-eating contest in 2003.

That would be Kobiyashi. 'Dat Dude is money.
Perry is just trying to drum up some pub for himself. Hopefully after this and the hot dog competition he failed miserably at, the media will stop giving him an audience and turn back to the real deal.
Competitive eating is great.

Yeah, but only if he can steal the spotlight from one of the greatest men of all time.... Still steamed about that one...
