Rules and regulations :

  • All participants in the contest must check in at the registration table prior to participating in the contest.
  • Contestants entered in the individual category will compete against only other individual contestants; and contestants entered as teams will compete against only other teams.
  • The objective is to eat as many pancakes in any style with water as the only beverage.
  • The allotted time is five minutes (must use a stop watch) (no more than one dozen) 12 per contestant.

Rules of the Game:

  • Any pancake in the competitor's mouth at the whistle counts toward the final tally only if the competitor chews and swallows the portion.
  • Dunking the pancake in water is allowed.
  • Maple syrup and/or butter are permitted to be applied to the pancakes, but the use of these items is at the discretion of the contestants.
  • Contestants must not touch any pancakes until the starting signal.

Judging:

  • Judges will be on hand to assure adherence to the contest rules and ensure fair play.
  • Winner will be determined by counting the number of pancakes eaten during the time limit. If more than one contestant finishes eating all 12 pancakes before the allotted time, the first one to swallow the last mouthful will be declared the winner.
