Who do you think will win? Tell us!

Registration for this contest is now closed.

The Acme Oyster Eating World Championship will return to the New Orleans on Sunday, June 5.

Making its debut in 2010 at the New Orleans Oyster Festival, the event will anchor the 2-day festival again this year. A lively field is expected in NOLA, given the prestige of the ACME title within the MLE community.

Sonya Thomas holds the current record of 37 dozen oysters eaten in 8 minutes. Each of the 444 ACME oysters Sonya consumed were done so with a fork, as required by MLE.

A refocused Crazy Legs Conti, whose career was launched after winning the 2002 ACME Oyster Eating title, has already stepped back into the winner's circle in 2011 with a corn victory. Can he follow suit at the New Orleans Oyster Festival?...
