Can we get a live webcast please?

And I’m not technically saavy enough for a live webcast…maybe football is, lol.
I really like this idea, and I actually live in Philadelphia, so it’s do-able.
The fact that I wouldn’t be able to train legs leading up to this event because of an injury makes me wary of being able to work up enough of an appetite to house a 5lb cheesesteak.
While having never done a formal eating contest before, I did do a little sushi eating contest with my friends. I won on a technicality (the other dude threw up), but I had only finished a little less than 10 rolls. Other eating related achievements include half a crave case from white castle, and 2 chipotle burritos.
To me, none of these seem to be in the realm of a 5lb cheesesteak, and thinking about the pain that I was in after I finished those other meals… yeah.
I want to commend you guys for making this happen, and I will consider going though I can’t make any promises right now.
someone organize one in san diego!
Do you guys even have cheesesteaks in San Diego?
Anom - you can go and just not eat. We’ll probably make fun of you the whole time, but you can still go. 
Fucking sweeeet!!!
I love the turnouts we are getting for this!
This will be a monumental T-Nation moment lmao…Cheesesteak, prepare to meet your match!

yeah we have cheesesteaks. or at least our version? I have no idea. I have never been to philly to have a legit one. The best place for cheesesteaks here (from what i have heard) is called Gaglione Brothers. I have been meaning to try it out.
Awesome.
For those trying it, since you’re doing it at 5pm, wake up and slam a whole pizza at like 10am and then drink as much water as possible. This will expand your stomach, and then you don’t eat for the rest of the day until the cheese steak challenge.
Shit, it takes WORK to get fat.
They’re going to have to slice up an entire cow for you guys.

So you want us to superset pizza and water?
Sounds good.
Should I lay off the water for the rest of the day or still drink a lot leading up to the challenge?
Hmmmmmmmmm… interesting.
I might have to stop by.
If everyone here chiming in actually stops by, this will go down as the greatest day in T-Nation history.

You should just take over the entire place, put a power cage in the corner, and let the world experience the raw power of T-Nation.
April 3rd, 5 pm. I’m not eating red meat for at least 2 days before this. Football is bringing his cam? I’m trying to get an accurate representation of what i’m going up against. How much does a whole pizza weigh you think? I really dont want to be the one who cant finish the steak.
Oh, and leave your bitches at home. You think they really wanna watch a bunch of meatheads stuff their faces with greasy meat and cheese until they puke? (I took a girl to wingbowl and she never wanted to hangout again).
I’m nervous…
Epic T-Nation awesome video? Please guys don’t let us down like a certain someone and a video of a lunk alarm at PF. I would be crushed if you guys don’t pull through on this.
Found a picture of what I assume to be a picture of the box it comes in to give you guys an idea of what your up against. Some dude on his blog tried the challenge, no idea who he is.
A friend of mine moved to Philly and got us all eating these now. It’s all in the slice thickness to get the flavour…with or without is all you need to know after that.
Good luck and isn’t it great to be at the top of the food chain

Lol, my “bitch” is pregnant as hell and will probably require a cheesesteak of her own (although NOT the 5 pounder, lol).
If she doesn’t have work, I don’t see a way for her not to go.
And BJB - that box actually makes me slightly more confident. Now I’m positive that I barely have a shot at finishing it.
This is gonna be awesome.
