Sirens Bar and Grill is hosting a burger-eating competition to raise money for HALO on Aug. 24.
The first person to finish a two-pound hamburger and roughly a pound of fries in the allotted hour wins a $75 Sirens gift certificate.
“The four-patty monster is not for the faint of heart,”cautions the event description on Facebook. “Don’t worry, you will have a 60 oz jug of a non-blood thinner beverage (no alcohol) to wash it all down.”
The event needs at least five participants to proceed and a maximum of 10 can compete. Entry fee is $50.
The contest has six rules:
– No leaving the table;
– You cannot have assistance;
– All food, including the fries, must be consumed;
– No bathroom breaks;
– No alcohol during the competition;
– Vomiting earns a disqualification.
Spectators are also able to contribute to the cause.
A dollar from each signature two-ounce HALO drink or local craft beer sampler will go toward HALO.
