College Student Emerges A Chocolate Champion
Posted on February 15th, 2006
Sometimes, you have to take a deep breath and step back from the stress of classes and college 'issues,' and just appreciate how fun being a student can be.
A great example of this is Pat Bertoletti, a college student who hopes to open his own restaurant some day. He proved he knows his way around food by scarfing down a record two pounds of chocolate hearts in seven minutes.
It wasn't just for the glory: Bertoletti won $2500.00 for his gastronomic feat.
As every college student knows, that's big money.
From the Chicago Sun-Times:Bertoletti, currently ranked 10th in the nation, is a rising star on the eating circuit. Monday's title brings his winnings to $12,000 in two years.
"He's being very smart about his money," said his mom, Deborah Bertoletti, one of five family members cheering him on. "He said he's saving to open his own restaurant."
College students used to stuff themselves into phone booths and tiny cars for fun. Eating chocolate sounds better to me, but whatever your poison, remember that college is about enjoying yourself, too.
