The wedding cake eating contest may have been a bit
unconventional, but what else would guests expect when the groom is one of the
world's top competitive eaters. Hall Hunt, who can down 63 Krystal burgers in
eight minutes, and Emily Wright served burgers at their wedding reception in
north Florida last month in a nod to Hunt's past time. The civil engineer has
eaten his way to $60,000 in the past five years. The No. 1-ranked competitive
eater in the world, Joey Chestnut was also a guest at the wedding. The hot dog
eating champs' presence was too good to pass up. The bride, groom and chestnut
were challenged to a cake eating contest - using forks - at the reception. The
bride won.
