IRI Krispy Kreme Challenge 2005

[Amanda Morrison]

I will admit... I wasn't at my greatest. But I gave it my all.

In the time that it took me to eat 4 1/2 doughnuts, the mysterious neverending Lavery Stomach had consumed a dozen doughnuts, a Twinkie, and a Ding Dong just for spite.

Needless to say, the amount of raw sugar I had had alone was enough to make me have to have a garbage can next to me for most of the day. I literally had to keep going at IRI, ready to ralph. A few times it got bad, and I had to sit down.

When it was all said and done, I forfeited due to my sinuses burning, my gut full, and my knowledge of Dave's endless tummy renewed. Mr. Lavery, you have won your bet.

"C'mon Amanda, this eating doughnuts, not rocket science."
"He's better than me at both!"

Miss Morrison, you are most gracious in defeat. Well played. You did very well, and with a little off-season work on an appropriate training program, you will be ready for the next IRI Challenge (we will do it again with a quart of milk as a chaser ). (and thanks, Brandon, for the great video!) My only regret is that when I went back for some more Twinkies a little later, they were all gone (Tytus got to them first!).

All Krispy-Kreme-related teasing aside, Amanda did a FANTASTIC job with the talent show and other elements of IRI, and has my complete respect. She may not be able to consume way-too-many pieces of fat-fried dough as quickly as some, but she can organize, align, cajole, prod, and direct a massive group of misfit performers (and judges) better than anyone I know!

I love how this is NOT rocket science. Perhaps Amanda would have a little more chance of success if it were. Oh well, valiant effort. Although snarfing a donut in like 2.5 seconds is slightly ridiculous Dave. And as far as the physical size difference, we really shouldn't forget Kobayashi (world record holder in hot dog eating) is probably smaller than Amanda. If this happens at Capital Clash, the competition may be a little better prepared though, so you may want to watch out Dave.

Yet another reason why in the future I can not miss IRI, even if my team does.
Thanks for the laugh guys.

My favorite quotes:
"you know that is like 5000 calories right there"

Amanda - "dave has the best legs"
Dave - "and you have to explain why."
Amanda - "it is because i am about to ralph"
Dave - "If you say I have the best legs because you are about to ralph, that doesn't work"
