 |

The Black Widow of eating contests has scarfed down 183 chicken wings in 12 minutes to break her own world record set last year in Buffalo, N.Y.
Sonya Thomas took home first place Sunday at the tenth annual National Buffalo Wings Festival. She beat eating marvel Joey "Jaws" Chestnut, who came in second with 174 wings.
The two won titles at the July Fourth hot dog eating contest on Coney Island.
The 100-pound Thomas of Alexandria, Va., is the reigning wing-eating champion. She downed 181 wings to win the 2010 contest. Chestnut of San Jose, Calif., settled for second with 169 wings.
The winner gets $1,500. The runner-up wins $750, and third place gets $300.
Thomas is called the Black Widow becomes she often beats male competitors in eating contests.
------------------------------------------
If my calculations are correct, that's about one chicken wing every 4 seconds!  |

Born in Gunsan, the 44 year old is 6th ranked in the world. As for her size:

| While the size of her stomach is only slightly larger than normal, her skinny build is perhaps her biggest advantage, allowing her stomach to expand more readily since it is not surrounded by the ring of fat common in other heavy eaters |
