Be careful what you ask for. A narf, you can clearly see if you enlarge these pictures (which I wouldn’t recommend), is a “nose barf.” Kind of a gross slang word for a culture that calls throwing up a “reversal of fortune” (interestingly, vomiting will get you disqualified but narfing is apparently ok).
After the contest, Shea started handing out a bunch of tickets to the Mets game that was about to start across the parking lot, and my friends Tamara, Evan, Jessica and I took advantage. We all got free Mets caps, provided by Nathan’s of course, and enjoyed our first visit to the new ballpark. It’s so much more attractive than Shea Stadium was, a great place to watch a game. I didn’t eat anything the rest of the day, but I didn’t feel sick either. Around the 5th inning they showed a recap of the contest on the big scoreboard, probably the only time I’ve ever been on a Jumbotron in my life, no matter how many times I pretended to pick my nose at the Marriott Center.
There you have it. My first and probably last foray into the world of competitive eating was fun, memorable, and unabashedly American. USA! USA! USA!
P.S. I just found the entire thing on video! Part 1 and Part 2–check it out! And it turns out one of the guys had a reversal–I actually finished 5th.
