https://abc13.com/food/cicis-pizza-challenges-you-to-eat-28-inch-pizza-to-win-$500/5222582/

KATY, Texas (KTRK) -- Can you finish a 28-inch pizza in 1 hour? Grab your eating buddy and take the challenge at Cici's Pizza in Katy.

The rules are that you and one partner have one hour to eat a 28-inch one topping pizza. You will each be given a 32 oz. drink.


You have to eat the whole pizza, crust and all. There are no trips to the restroom and you have to hold it all down until at least two minutes after you finish.

It costs $50 to enter, but if you complete the challenge, you win $500.

Based on the physique of the average CiCis patron, I think 28 inch pizza may not be enough for even one customer let alone two.

Have you ever eaten a 28 inch pizza? Surface area doesn't scale linearly to diameter, a 28 inch pizza is equivalent to 4 large pizzas (14 inch diameter).

I never get the last word, and it makes me very sad.
The prize is $500, they definitely expect people to pull it off. Have you seen some of these competitive eaters? They'll happily destroy something like this just to make a YouTube vid; an actual prize is just a bonus.

Always remember that the former President was dumber than the dumbest person you've ever met by a wide margin

You aren't allowed to use the bathroom during the hour, given the quality of CiCi's pizza I have to assume multiple people will poo poo their pants while eating this.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

Cicis is great if you don't want to cook dinner and you take the family for a cheap meal where everyone stuffs their faces to bursting. plus their dessert pizzas are :discourse:

What sort of lovely place do you live where a 14" pizza is considered a large? What is that, like Dominos or something?

The absolute best thing about Cicis is when you leave and all the people behind the counter all yell to you "Cici ya later!"

$500 is like 1/20th the pay needed for me to eat Cici's pizza. It's almost somehow more gross than Little Caesars or Pizza Hut.

True. I liked their cinnamon roll pizza.

Unfortunately, I haven't been there since April 21, 2016. I learned of Prince's death while I was there that day, and it permanently ruined my appetite for CiCis. :(
