A wing thing

Paul Cosner shows his tub of chicken bones after being proclaimed the winner of the inaugural Chicken Wing Eating Contest on Saturday at Fat Patties restaurant in Port Royal. Cosner, a U.S. Marine with MALS-31, Marine Corps Air Station Beaufort, bested the other participants by eating 17 flaming hot chicken wings doused with Carolina Reaper hot sauce in the allotted eight-minute time frame. For his efforts, Cosner won a year’s worth of free hamburgers. In the background other participants react to the shared burning sensation in their digestive systems. One contestant even remarked that his lips were numb. All contestants were given a bowl of vanilla ice cream to help with gastric distress shared by all. Bob Sofaly/The Island News
