The winners of Farrell’s First Annual Splendiferously Superiffic Summer Spectacular Ice Cream Challenge emerged from their Pig Troughs Sunday. The men’s champ, Robert Caggiano, devoured the double banana split in just one minute fifteen seconds. The women’s winner, Tisha Stephens, accomplished the feat in two minutes thirty-seven seconds.
The members of the best team in the 4-person event were Jordan Weiss, Eric Hall, Nick Johnson, and Fawad Alvi. Their challenge was the world famous Farrell’s Zoo, a giant bowl that features four flavors of ice cream, three fruit flavor sherbets, four toppings, whipped cream, cherries, bananas, and of course, the zoo animals and decorations that the participants ate around to finish.
The contest pitted the 8 fastest men, women and 4-person teams from previous qualifying competitions in Mission Viejo and Santa Clarita. The event coincided with National Ice Cream Day, a holiday proclaimed for the third Sunday in July by President Ronald Reagan.

With obesity and hunger two of the worst problems facing us this display of gluttony is disgusting. Farrell’s should be ashamed of itself for fostering and benefitting from such a contest.
You should be ashamed of yourself for being such a downer!
