Jared Dudley

Jared Dudley used to eat a lot of McDonald’s. He soon realized that eating a Big Mac a day did not keep the weight away, so he gave up his McDonald’s addiction and turned himself into a very good NBA player.

McDonald’s doesn’t produce hot dogs (yet), but anyone who used to eat McDonald’s everyday would likely do well in an eating competition. Eating McDonald’s daily tells me that you simply don’t care what goes into your body. That’s the kind of person you need in this competition. The people in this competition put upwards of 50 hot dogs into their stomach in 10-minutes. These people are on the opposite end of the “I care” spectrum. The people who enter a good eating competition are the people who walk around with a cracked phone screen. And I’m not talking about a small crack on the corner, I’m talking about a screen so cracked that if you tap too hard, the whole phone will disintegrate. Those are the type of people in the hot dog eating contest. Based on his McDonald’s addiction, I just assume Jared Dudley is that type of person.

I put Jared Dudley on this list because I thought he was nearing the end of his career and would soon return to his daily McDonald’s eating days. He’s only 31. How is Dudley only 31? He’s been in the league for 20 years. Tell me your secrets, Jared Dudley.
