Perfect, you get the point, so let's move past the hysteria and meet the prolific pancake eaters of Pancake, Pennsylvania. Preston Power sure is a natural-born feeder. He comes from a line of prolific eaters. His Aunt Ruth once ate a boat made of cheese, and his grandpa slurped a sea of sardines. Penny Petite can eat more pancakes than you. She's been pounding them down since before she was 2, and although she stands only 3 foot 7, she's eaten pancakes stacked to 111. Peter Pancake is no laughing matter. He practices by swimming in pancake batter. Peter is an eating ace, and at every Pancake Eating Games, he wins first place. The Pancake Games took place promptly each year, attracting proud fans from far and near. President Prescott would pop out the cheers and waves as he prepared to announce the challenge that day. The challenge, my pretty little eaters of Pancake Pavilion, is to eat a stack of pancakes piled up to 1 million. Proceed.
