Location: New York, NY
This year will mark the 81st Annual Feast of San Gennaro in Little Italy. More than a million people attend this festival every year, which runs for 11 days starting on September 11.
Eater X hopes to win his third straight cannoli title on September 12. Last year, the face-painted lothario consumed 21 cannoli in six minutes--shy of his record of 26 in six minutes--at Grand and Baxter Streets in New York City.
Crazy Legs ate 17 for 2nd place. Third was a tie with Allen Goldstein and Nate Biller eating 16 each.
Registration for this event is now closed.
