50 Nugget Challenge – McDonald’s Fundraiser

27th October 2004

“50 Nugget Challenge” - how funny! It was 5.30 in the afternoon and the nuggets were ready to go. Every one started to arrive at around 6pm for the big challenge. Gav and D C were the first to attempt, they went to the counter to order and the girls couldn't believe their eyes. “Are you really going to eat all that?” they all asked. And of course, the boys said they’d attempt it. Off they went back to the table with their nuggets. Gav with his BBQ sauce, and D C with his sweet and sour - and the counter began! They had an hour to eat them all. Gav managed to finish his in 14 min then went back for more. The total in the end was around 67. Well done! D C managed to get through around 30 then couldn't finish. (It was the last bourbon you had before eating wasn’t it?!), or at least that was the excuse he gave us.

More people started to arrive. Lines were out the door as everyone was supporting the club. We then had another attempt at the 50 nuggets - that was Lee. He finished in fine form (unsure of the sauce or exact time sorry, but he wasn’t far behind Gav’s time!). Every one else managed to eat as much as they could. Some people going back for seconds and thirds. From what I saw people were eating heaps. 7.30 hit, and the 2 hours was up. We managed to raise a total of $260.00 for the night. I would like to thank everyone for attending the night and supporting the club.
