The controversy of our times: Is professional eating a sport?

By kate moss




Mockalester student Chris Little ’06 completed a David Blainian 12-day protest against the “conspiracy” by The Mock Weekly against his “sport” of choice. What was unusual about this protest, as opposed to any of the other ubiquitous Mockalester protests, was the fact that Little sat in a bathtub filled with beans and had Freedom Fries stuffed up his nose.

Unfortunately for Little, he ended up looking like a moron, albeit a hilariously funny moron. Even so, his demonstration prompted some discussion at Mock Weekly Sports, but we have decided not to present the two sides of the “is it a sport?” argument as we see it.
