Philadelphia's Wing Bowl Winner 2008: Joey Chestnut

Joey Chestnut becomes the winner of 2008 Wing Bowl.

For those of you who don't know, Wing Bowl is Philadelphia's kickoff for Pre-Superbowl festivities.

Wing Bowl is essentially a chicken wing eating contest sponsored by a local sports radio station. Over the years it has morphed into a giant spectacle of fat men, hot women and drunken fans. This event gets more fans than a late season Phillies game.

Personally I have never made it to a Wing Bowl, but I have to admit if I had a day with nothing on the schedule I would be tempted to round up Wyatt and make a day of it. Maybe next year.

"Joey Chestnut scarfs a record 241 wings to reclaim his Wing Bowl crown, with El Wingador finishing third. Patrick Bertoletti is the runner-up." - From Philly.com
