2011 CHAMPIONSHIP WINNERS
Congratulations to all the winners of this year's championship events. This year we saw Shandra Kratz retain her top spot on speed-eating, even with a bun in the oven; Chad Kratz beat his record last year (6.82s) in speed-eating with 4.10s; Lucas Koch also kept his speed-eating seat from last year (38.38s) with 7.92s; Kent Berney was still top seed-spit in the Senior's spit with 29'-3" - almost a full 8" further than his spit last year (21'-7"); and the Swartz Family from Taylor, WI, went home with the only division they haven't won - FOUR PERSON SEED-SPIT!
