Wheel Restaurant located in downtown, Pottsville, PA has announced they will be welcoming world-famous competitive eater Randy Santel to the restaurant on Thursday, October 24th for a special event!
With over 800,000 Facebook followers, nearly 900,000 YouTube subscribers, and 10 million website views per month, Randy is well known across the world for completing various eating challenges. In the 9 years that Randy has been eating professionally he has completed 792 food challenges in all 50 states and 36 different countries.
Recently returning from a trip to Taiwan Randy is excited to venture to Pottsville where he last was in 2015 to visit the Yuengling Brewery. Randy has described Yuengling as his favorite beer in several of his videos.
Randy will be the first person to attempt Wheel’s newly invented “Skook Grilled Cheese Challenge”. The challenge is comprised of 2 slices of 12-inch by 12-inch bread home made from Minersville bakery, 6 different types of cheese equaling over 1lb, 1lb of local favorite Kowalonek’s Kielbasa, and 10 of Mrs. T’s delicious Pierogies. In addition to the monstrous sandwich Randy will have to eat a bowl of Wheel’s tomato bisque soup, 6 homemade croutons, and wash it all down with a 12oz hometown bottle of Yuengling Lager. He must do all of this within 30 minutes to successfully complete the challenge.
“We are so excited to have Randy visit Wheel. Reservations are almost full and the Skook Grilled Cheese Challenge probably doesn’t stand a chance!” said Wheel Owner Savas Logothetides.
Randy will be at the restaurant on Thursday from approximately 5:30pm until 8:30 with the challenge going off around 6:30pm.
