Competitive eating made an appearance at the 2011 West Seattle Summer Fest on Saturday, July 9 as eight contestants took on the gastronomical feat of swallowing down as many veggie hot dogs as possible in five minutes.

Instead of using water, the traditional bun-wetting liquid of competitive eating, contestants were given a hearty Georgetown brew to help get ‘em down.

Owners and employees from establishments including West 5, Georgetown Brewing, Chaco Canyon Organic Café and Fresh Bistro, along with a few adventurous bystanders took part.

Rob Roy from the Fresh Bistro emerged victorious, stomaching seven dogs.

The quote of the competition came from a concerned bystander:

“Oh god, that guy’s gonna puke.”

Luckily, no one puked.
