Competitive Eater Kobayashi Finishes Pizza in 60 Seconds

The Superbowl left us with many memorable moments- broken kickoff records, 30 minute power outages, all that fun stuff. But a worthy moment went unmentioned on national television when Takeru Kobayashi, a competitive eater known for his hot dog eating, finished a 12 inch pizza in under 60 seconds. Kobayashi was booked for the Superbowl party through his booking agency, and was payed a well-earned $3,250 for the heartfelt pizza-consuming performance. This record-breaking achievement demonstrates Kobayashi's true dedication too his competitive eating career. He beat his previous world record of finishing a pizza in 1 minute and 9.36 seconds, however the event was unofficial so doesn't count as a world record. After the pizza eating glory, Kobayashi and the bros at the Superbowl party had a beer chugging contest that unfortunately left his pizza achievement shadowed by defeat.
