The gauntlet has been thrown

I am really looking forward to the trip to West Michigan this year!


See that thing in the middle of the above photo (which was taken by Jon M. Brouwer as part of this story in the Grand Rapids Press)?

It's surrounded by such items as Walking Chicken Teriyaki, Chocolate Frozen Bananas, Funnel Cake Fries, and mini chicken sliders on pretzel buns.

The name is The Fifth Third Burger. It is:
...a monstrosity of five beef patties weighing five-thirds of a pound, dressed with sliced Spam, sausage gravy, fried eggs and a gigantic pickle.
Five-thirds of a pound? That's only...what, 1-2/3 pounds? HAH!

Here is a different picture of what some are calling a monstrosity. I'd call it an appetizer.


That is from the Going Gonzo blog at the GR Press.

My only questions are: Can I get fries with that? Is there a time limit? Is there a T-shirt or trophy or do I just get the sense of satisfaction for finishing it?

Big hearty tip o' the cap to Bless You Boys for pointing this one out.
