the poutine challenge

There's this greasy spoon a few blocks from my house, and it has The Poutine Challenge. The challenge is to eat a giant poutine -- 10 big potatoes, a big hunk of grated cheese and a litre, yes, a litre of gravy -- in less than an hour. In the few months this place has been open, they've had over 350 people try it, and the only one who made it was the first guy who showed up.

So last night after playing some ulti, Andy and Troy both decided to take the challenge. Despite their glorious efforts, both gave up after about half an hour without eating even half of the giant plate of grease. Alas. The potato gods win again.
