TheDukeAnumber1 Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 (edited) In the spirit of our nearly universal love for tacos, and friendly competition, welcome to the opening sign ups for the first annual Taco Eating Contest. If you wish to enter simply include in a post below "I am in it to win it!" and your official entry into the contest will be noted. This thread is for sign ups and pre-contest discussion. The rules and guidelines for the contest are below. - Because they are wide spread Taco Bell crunchy tacos will be the "standard" for acceptable tacos allowed. Other options and home mades will be allowed but they must be very similar in size and composition to be counted. Soft tacos will be accepted but in the event of a tie or discrepancy preference will be given to the crunchy taco eater. - I will create an official entry thread where at minimum a before and after photo must be posted showing pre-consumption and one showing the aftermath. This is an on your honor contest that lives on the integrity of the forum members and the before and after photo will generally be accepted. If something seems off about your entry more "proof" may be requested which may include more photos. The only guaranteed proof is a full video which you can record if you wish and provide if needed but it should not be necessary. - The goal is to eat the most tacos in one sitting. A sitting will be defined as a maximum of 1 hour. - The entry thread will be created at the beginning of NERM week (July 12th) with final submissions being accepted on July 16th and the winner will be crowned on the 17th. - I may amend rules as the contest nears and in the event of any gray areas I will make the required decisions or lean on the moderators for guidance. And what would a contest be without a prize! The crowned winner will be mailed at no expense a one of a kind taco champ trophy 3D printed in Coop green! I quickly made this in CAD and 3D printed it. It's not perfect but it is unique and will be your bragging rights for the year. Edited July 9, 2021 by TheDukeAnumber1 8 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Zenzo Posted July 6, 2021 Administrators Share Posted July 6, 2021 That trophy is pretty cool! Now I am in the mood for tacos (the authentic kind, on soft corn tortillas, served with radish and from a Mexican restaurant or food truck)!

DannyBWell Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 I can already hear people screaming at me at the drive through as I'm waiting for multiple taco 12 packs to be made. Maybe I should go inside for this one! I am in it to win it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MDoc Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 Is it purely how many you can eat in a sitting? In a certain time period? Fastest to eat X number? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fastest to eat X number? Thanks for bringing that up. The intention is most tacos eaten in one sitting, with a time limit of 1 hour. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spewing_nonsense_ Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 Man 1 hour is super long tho, I feel like it should be shortened up to like 15 or 20 minutes, like I’m sure if someone really wanted to and took this super seriously they could probably eat 50 tacos in one hour, if not more, idk how much the human stomach can hold 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
