On your mark... get set.... EAT!

For years I've been waiting and anticipating a hot dog eating contest  and what better spot than right here on the Southcoast in Beautiful Downtown, New Bedford!

Thanks to Mary's Steamed Cheeseburgers, my dream has officially come a reality and to top it off... I get to be an official judge! This makes me happy beyond reason.

Mary's hot dog eating contest will be benefiting the Neediest Families Fund right here in New Bedford where 100% of profits will go to the Greater New Bedford Salvation Army.

There are only 20 spots for this contest and it WILL sell out fast. Anyone who is interested must register in person, Mary's will not hold any spots. See full list of rules for contest.

The judges will be Gazelle from Fun 107's 'Rock and Fox Show', Michael Lawrence- Reporter at SouthCoast Today and of course, the Beautiful Mary (Owner of Mary's Steamed Cheeseburgers).

FIRST PRIZE: $125 Cash & Black Tie Cookies Beach Pail Filled With a Dozen Cookies ($40 value).

SECOND PRIZE: 1 Hour Batting Cage Rental at Inside the Park Indoor batting cages & Half hour private lesson with Owner Sean Riley ($75 value) and $25 Gift Card to Dick's Sporting Goods.

THIRD PRIZE: Box of Titleist ProV 1 Golf Balls and a $25 Dick's Sporting Goods Gift Card.

I met up with Mary (Owner) to lay down the official rules of the "Hot Dog Eating Contest" and it's safe to say that we have come to a conclusion:
