Heartburn in Western Pennsylvania
Posted October 16th, 2008 at 11:42 PM by Jon HamIs this what Western Pennsylvanians do when they’re not burning crosses?:
A chef at a western Pennsylvania Italian restaurant ate a 15-pound burger with 5.2 pounds of toppings in 4 hours and 39 minutes. Brad Sciullo, of Uniontown, is the first person to successfully eat the huge burger at Denny’s Beer Barrel Pub, said pub owner Dennis Liegey.
The burger — called the Beer Barrel Belly Bruiser — include a bun, lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, onions, mild banana peppers and a cup each of mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard and relish.

That story rated better placement in my local paint-catcher, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (page 4A), than the FBI investigating ACORN one (bottom of page 12A).
