If you didn’t catch Choice One’s social media last week, you missed a post about our annual Skyline Chili Coney-Off. 27 Choice One competitors raced to see who could eat the most cheese coneys in an hour. If it isn’t clear from the photos, Dane was not the winner.

It was an epic day. Wagers were placed. The local Skyline locations were forewarned of impending doom… er, our arrival. Sabotage doughnuts may or may not have been sent to the Loveland office the morning of the event. A winner was crowned (congrats Nick Sanders!). And, at final tally, 58 feet, 11 inches of hot dog were consumed, which is about the height of an average silo, according to our farmer-engineers.

It’s a little surprising that the cheese slowed Dane down. Historically, Choice Oners, especially Dane, love cheese. Regardless, Dane was able to stuff down 5.5 coneys (and their cheese), but it wasn’t enough to beat Nick—who has once again won with a Lucky 13!
