Deep Dish Does Dallas

Pat 'Deep Dish' Bertoletti continued his winning streak against Joey Chestnut today at the State Fair of Texas, winning the Waffle House World Waffle Eating Championship with a new record of 29 waffles in 10 minutes. Bertoletti walked away with $3500 and the newly minted Waffle House Belt, an award that's almost blinding in its raw beauty.

Joey took second with 28 1/2, and Eater X finished 3rd with 21 1/4. Brad 'Old School' Sciullo nabbed the $600 4th place prize with 17 1/2 waffles.

In other competitive eating news, retired gurgitator Edward 'Cookie' Jarvis reportedly mowed his lawn today.
