There is one in Pontiac...or we could go to Novi if Blair wanted to make the trip.
As far as an eating contest, I must warn you that my record to date is 175 shrimp in one trip.

For some reason I thought that they served them roughly 8 at a time per dish? It's been a while since I've done it.

[edit] Nevermind on that '8' mention. I just saw the offerings and it appears to differ depending on what you get. I've participated in eating contests in the past. For that 175 shrimp, is there a time limit you achieved that within?

You start with two servings of 15ea then refills are single servings of 10-15 shrimp.
There wasn't really a time frame on the 175 but it was done during a "normal" dinner time frame of approx an hour I guess.
I typically do 135-150 per trip but that includes my baked potato and salad or cole slaw too.
I must admit though, my last couple trips have been less than stellar with only around 100-115 tails in front of me.

Depending on where and when this happens, I might be interested in joining if there's an extra seat at the table.

As a side note....what is everyone's favorite type of shrimp at Red Lobster?
I always start with a double order of scampi....and then I dump the garlic butter all over my baked potato  :o

I'm taking the family on Friday. Surprisingly, my favorite is the shrimp linguine. It's delicious. Of course, I'm filling up on pasta too so it's one of those double edged swords. Lol.

LOL, none of us will....but can you imagine what the management will think when 5 or 6 guys all come in together and order the endless shrimp?
