It sure does seem that there are a lot of wing challenges out there for Adam to attempt, but despite the name of this one it didn’t seem like it was as bad as some of the others. These are jumbo wings as opposed to normal wings, they are also breaded which makes them a bit more to handle since the breading soaks up the hot sauce, but as far as hotness goes Adam didn’t seem to have that big of a problem with them. He went with an unorthodox, but smart, strategy of taking the first 8 minutes of his 15 minute time allotment to remove the wings from the bones so that he could eat them without getting hot sauce all over his face. This cut out the face burn factor which made the wing meat easier to eat in the end, and in the end he prevailed. But just because Adam was the 4th person to complete the challenge doesn’t mean that it’s an easy one, so give it a shot and let us know how you fair against the Ludicrous Wing Challenge!

Adam ventured into a parking lot last night to enjoy what could possibly be the most delicious sandwiches ever. A Fat Sandwich consists of pretty much anything you can imagine, on a sandwich. Everything from mozzarella sticks, chicken fingers, cole slaw, etc and every sandwich is topped with a handful of french fries. The challenge pitted Adam against 5 of these bad boys in an attempt to name a sandwich after himself, however he fell short of the challenge and could not complete all 5.
