Krystal Square Off at the Mid-South Fair

Location: Memphis, TN
Date: 10-01-2006
Winner: Tim Janus

This year marked the 150th Anniversary of the Mid-South Fair. The crowning jewel in their birthday celebration was no doubt the 2006 Krystal Square Off World Hamburger Eating Championship Qualifier on October 1.

Tim Janus, feeling distressed about his his 1/2-Krystal loss to Chip Simpson in Atlanta, set out to secure a Qualifier trophy for himself. He found what he was seeking, and was able to achieve an inner peace before heading into the finals. Janus claimed the victory with 53 Krystals in 8 minutes, followed by Rich LeFevre with 51 and Seaver Miller with 41. LeFevre and Miller have no doubt earned wildcard positions in Chattanooga on the 28th. Arturo Rios performed well yet again with 36, and local hero Sam Vise rounded out the top five with 30.
