How Could I Forget?

I'm really not sure how I could forget to blog about our exciting evening last Friday!

If you know Gary well, you know that he enters EVERY contest he possibly can...through all the radio stations here in Detroit, at sporting events, through the newspapers or anywhere else they are looking for suckers to sign up. Because of this, he wins a lot of things. Most think he's just lucky, I know it's because if you enter a thousand contests, you're bound to win sometime. Anyway, this time Gary put his name in to be part of a cornbread eating contest for the chance to win Lion's season tickets. Of course, he was chosen to compete, so we headed out to Shelby Township (mind you, that is 50 minutes from our house) for the night to see how much cornbread he could eat.

Stuffin' his face!

Unfortunately, he didn't win (I'll let you guess who did...) but was offered a pair of tickets for making the trip. We'll see if he actually gets them. Regardless, it was quite entertaining and definitely something different that we don't do every weekend!
