Darron Breeden of Orange, Virginia, topped a field of seven contestants who participated in the annual contest, which is held in a park between the French Quarter and the Mississippi River.

Sounds like an average night at Hooters. Slurping oysters and suds and oogling babes. Good times.

My father used to love oysters. He could put away dozens at a sitting. Probably not 40 dozen but at least 10 dozen. And if he was drinking, a lot more. LOL. When we were kids we’d sit and watch in amazement.

If you look at his photo you’d not think he could hold that many at one sitting.

480 oysters! I love oysters, but I don’t think I’ve eaten 40 dozen over my entire life.

I hear oysters are a libido booster. I guess New Orleans was a good place to be after he won.

Not so. I ate a dozen and two of them didn’t work.

Gross. I can’t imagine the massive amount of barf he must’ve horked up afterward.
