My Little Cupcake will once again serve as host for Bridgeport’s third Pepperoni Eating Contest at 6 p.m. on Feb. 18 a the Benedum Civic Center in Bridgeport.

 

Registration will begin at 5:30 p.m. the day of the contest.

 

All proceeds from the event will benefit United Way of Harrison County.

 

The primary goal of the contest is to raise as much money as possible for the United Way by finding as many sponsors as possible.

 

Contestants will eat as many pepperoni rolls (weighed in ounces) as they can in 10 minutes.

 

The contestant who raises the most money by ounces eaten in 10 minutes or raises the most overall money wins. Also, there will be a male and female category for who eats the most pepperoni rolls.

 

The contestant who raises the most money will win a traveling trophy as well as cupcakes for a year (one dozen cupcakes each month). The contestant that eats the most pepperoni rolls (in weight) will win a trophy and one dozen cupcakes.

 

All contestants must fill out and sign the official rules/waiver form before competing. That information can be found HERE

 

In order to raise the most donations, contestants are asked to find sponsors for the contest. Anyone can sponsor a registered contestant. Sponsors can pledge any dollar amount for ounces eaten or choose to make a flat pledge. There is no limit to how many sponsors a contestant can have.

 

If you are pledging for a contestant, please print and fill out the pledge forms attached to the rules/regulations which can be found HERE and mail them to United Way of Harrison County, P.O. Box 2452, Clarksburg, WV, 26302.
