For Those Who Eschew Hot Dogs: Brooklyn Burger Eating Competition Tonight

Borough President Marty Markowitz writes to let us know about the 4th annual Brooklyn Burger Eating Competition happening tonight (Wednesday, July 14) at 6:45 p.m. at MCU Park (home of the Cyclones), 1904 Surf Avenue at W. 19th Street, Coney Island.

The winning burger eater advances to the next level of competition to be held at Citi Field on July 30. Last year's burger champ woofed down 13 two-ounce sliders (with bun) in three minutes.

Let's hope last year's champ doesn't storm the stage and get arrested.

The competition is sponsored by Brooklyn Burger, official hamburger of the New York Mets, Brooklyn Cyclones and the Nets.
