Just a few days ago, we named Rick "The Manager" Russo, Royersford resident and competitive eater, Mr. Patch 2011. The award came to Russo after he won the polls that occurred in December through early January.

In light of Russo competing in his fourth consecutive WIP Wing Bowl, which is an annual buffalo wing eating contest held at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia, yours truly will be tagging along to cover all things Rick The Manager!

Russo invited me to be in his "entourage" - the group that hangs with each eater for the entire event. I'll be there, sporting my Patch hat and a Rick The Manager t-shirt, documenting each step Russo takes toward potential victory (although WIP morning show host Angelo Cataldi said Russo has no shot at the glory).

Professional eater Takeru Kobayashi will be competing, so this is a huge opportunity for Rick The Manager.

Check out the below schedule to know when you can see Wing Bowl coverage right here on LRSC Patch.

Thursday, 5-7 p.m. - Chickie's and Pete's on Packer Avenue will be hosting the "weigh in" for the event. I'll be there to snap some photos and meet my fellow entourage members the night before the event.
