How many chicken wings could you eat in 30 minutes?

Every Friday before the Super Bowl, Philadelphia's Sports Radio station, WIP, holds a Chicken Wing eating contest called the Wing Bowl 20. The winner of the contest gets a crown and a twenty thousand dollar check. This year, Japanese competitive eater, Takeru Kobayashi won by eating 337 wings.

That's 337 wings in 30 minutes.

So, how many points would that be at Weight Watchers?

Better yet...

If each wing is approximately 81 calories, that's 27,297 calories in 30 minutes! If you normally consume 1800 calories a day, that's a little over 15 days worth of food in 30 minutes.

No amount of hopping on the elliptical is going to cure that one.
