Being a decade and a half my junior, Councilman Zack Matheny could beat me in a lot of things. But for the News and Record to think he could compete with me in an eating contest is ludicrous. Ive taken down champions. Especially in oyster eating contests. Heres one of the N&R predictions for 2015: Greensboro City Councilman Tony Wilkins wants more money and attention on High Point Road, in his district, and its “International Restaurant Row.” Fellow Councilman Zack Matheny would rather market the entire city’s ethnic restaurants. The two settle their food fued with an eating contest — a literal test of intestinal fortitude that sees them eat their way across the Gate City until one man falls on his swollen, distended belly. All in fun, Allen and Doug. Somebody famous once said dont poke the man who buys ink by the barrel and dont argue with a bear...or was it the other way around?
