I need the assistance of fellow Pack fans. I have a good friend in Texas that went to SMU for undergrad. I have been offered a wager where if the Pack loses I have to travel to Amarillo, TX and attempt to eat a 72 oz. steak. Do y'all know if a restaurant or bar in Reno/Tahoe/Carson City has any sort of eating challenge? I thought a restaurant or bar around town did something like that but I can't remember. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Go Pack!

Swenson's Ice Cream on Kietzke has/had something called an earthquake or something. If he’s lactose intolerant, it could be fun.

Yea, the only one I know of is the Ice Cream, and it's really not that bad.

I think Swenson's might be closed now, but you should double-check that.

I did hear about that burger place at the Legends having some kind of giant burger that has a challenge for eating, but I don't know the details.

I've attempted said 72 oz. Big Texan steak challenge (http://www.bigtexan.com/free72.html) (don't forget the giant baked potato and the salad, also part of the challenge). I made it to about 30 oz.before I vomited. Wasn't right for a good 3 days afterward.

Make sure your friend is taking a similar gastro-intestinal risk to keep it fair.
