11-year old Hits Half-Court Shot, Wins Pizza for a Year

Pizza party at the Collins'!

That is sure to be the case for the next year in Kennesaw, GA. 

Collins hit a half-court shot at halftime of Thursday's game at Kennesaw State, earning him complimentary pizza from Papa John's through next February.  No word on if he gets a year's supply of garlic dipping sauce as well.

Watch the video and the reaction from his buddy under the basket.  The kid knew it was in right away.

Congrats to Cody Collins.

The World's Biggest Enchilada

The Whole Enchilada.

Officials in a Mexico City borough said 600 residents made it into the Guinness Book of World Records by creating the world's largest enchilada.

Guinness officials said the Iztapalapa borough's enchilada, measuring 230 feet, 12 inches in diameter, beat earlier attempts elsewhere in the country and in the United States, La Jornada reported Monday.

The enchilada, which was worked on by 600 locals, weighed in at 1,032 pounds and included massive amounts of corn dough, chicken, cheese, onions, Serrano peppers, tomatoes and other ingredients.

Mexico City Tourism Minister Alejandro Rojas said the enchilada was created to bring attention to the borough as part of an effort to boost tourism.

Krispy Kreme Cheeseburgers at The Wisconsin State Fair

You can eat anything at The Wisconsin State Fair, evidence  the Krispy Kreme Cheeseburger.

Sold at the Machine Shed tent at the fair, the $5 burger features the normal patty and melted cheese, but with a Krispy Kreme doughnut for a bun. For an extra dollar, patrons can top the burger with last year’s big hit: chocolate-covered bacon on a stick (furthering the debate on whether the new dish is dinner or dessert).

The calorie count: 1,000, according to Nathan Morrissey, executive chef at the Machine Shed.

Todd Whittaker of Fond du Lac, Wis., came to the State Fair with his wife, Dawn, and their 16-month-old daughter, Bren. They were interested in trying the new burger after seeing a similar product on an episode of the Travel Channel show “Man vs. Food.”

Dawn Whittaker was the first to take a bite.

“It’s good! It’s different,” she said. “Kind of a little salty and sweet all at once.”

Some at the fair tried the Krispy Kreme burger after stumbling on it by accident. Dan Hypki of South Milwaukee bought one, he said, “because it’s just odd.”  Oddly ood some say.

"The Wisconson State Fair", bring your appetite.
