Donut Eating Contest

7/27/07: To celebrate the premiere of The Simpsons Movie in Burlington Vermont, Merrill's Roxy Cinemas held a donut eating contest.

Homer and Bart Simpson from the award winning Springfield Vermont video were on hand for the festivities.

The winner of the eating contest was Joel Ribout, a marathon runner who has always dreamt of being in an eating contest. He ate 8.5 donuts in 4 minutes.

The proceeds from the evening went to the VT Film Commission who made the short film that won the contest.
