He's lovin' it: Poker player to attempt to eat $1000 worth of McDonalds food in 36 hours

[PLOL]

Did he work out a rakeback deal with the McDonalds he'll be doing this at?

[mulva]

bacon must be key. a big mac is 7.5 ounces and costs $4. a slice of bacon costs $1.29 and weighs half an ounce. 7.5 ounces of bacon, the weight of a big mac, costs almost $20.

he has to eat $50 worth of burgers.. so he buys 13 big macs, each with 45 slices of bacon on it. each bacon monstrosity burger would weigh 1.87 pounds about for a total weight of about 25 pounds, rounded up.

the bacon could be key here, no doubt about it.

just think if he asks for it extra crispy. 100 pieces might make up only 1lb

[sonatine]

still pretty sure he ends up in the ER but its looking more possible yes.

[PLOL]

Oddly enough, even if Noori succeeds, he will still have eaten less food than I did on that one "Live at the Bike" episode.

*laugh track*


When does this bet take place anyway?

[mulva]

more of less 5 lb's of bacon @ mickey's costs close to $500 in this scenario? is my math off here.

Even if he survives, the amount of irradiated food that has been consumed in such a small amount of time can't be safe, this guy must have a death wish, judging by his jaundice look, it's not going to end well...........first ballot Darwin award winner.

Also as far as staying up for 36 hours I cant imagine thats the best play. What he should do is get in some exercise on the day he starts it. Then kick it off late at night and crush whatever and go to sleep.

Basically use the 36 hours over 3 days.

So he can eat late the first night and go to bed, eat whatever the next day and sleep again and then attack when he wakes up the 3rd day

how is that possible?.. that's not 36 hrs. that's 3 days or 72 hrs

A 36 hour window can last 3 calendar days is what he's saying

yeah he can't just like clock into a mc donalds and then clock out.

I am sure the 36 hours starts at the moment of the first bite.

Bingo

Like he could start the first night and crush a bunch of food from 11 PM till midnight.

Sleep for 8 hours and then he gets up @ 8 AM and then he has 16 hrs to do whatever he chooses.

He goes to bed this night at 11 PM and he is now at 24 hours.

He can sleep for 8 more hours and wake up and crush the last 4 hours to win/thread

[PLOL]

I like his side

[LarryLaffer]

According to Men’s Health magazine, six healthy guys did eat 6,000 calories for seven days straight while staying in a hospital bed under the name of medical research. The men gained on average 8 pounds per person. They developed insulin resistance, liver complications and extreme oxidative stress.

this guy is going into a coma for SURE

[mulva]

at first i didn't think he could do it. now i think he can. those apple and salad prices are high...and all he needs to do is eat 2.5 lbs of bacon in 2 separate binges in those 36hrs for 5 hundo towards...the 1k

and if he can somehow eat like a huge pig 3 times and not let it bother him he gets to eat even less each time.

[zealanddonk]

Anyone actually know him to know if he'd make a donk bet, or if he does have the angle.

As others have said, apples and salad probably going to be the sweet spot and all the other shenanigans along the way.


Side question, anyone know how much stock MCDs keeps on hand at any particular branch.

that's a good question. i addition to the above things we said. he may have something else up his sleeve. or he could just be a boob and made this bet on a drunken whim

[PLOL]

I assume we're working to get this guy on radio.

Also, some tidbits:
He's not allowed to contact restaurants prior
He's going to do it wearing the hamburglar costume
