COLDWATER, MI (WTVB) – It wasn’t a new record, but Justin Heffron of Blue Ox Credit Union did down 23 chicken wings in 3 minutes to the annual wings eating contest between local financial institutions at J.T’s Billiard Bar and Grill last night. Last year’s winner Corey Dinner from Southern Michigan Bank and Trust and 2014 winner Matt Houtz from PNC Bank finished tied for second place.
Employees from seven banks and credit unions participated in the contest. Other contestants included: Trevor Cooper and Stacey Donner from Honor Credit Union, Logan Inman from Southern Michigan Bank and Trust, Nick Obernour from Flagstar, Teresa Dillon and Shelley Scribner from Chemical Bank, and Adam Wright from Century Bank and Trust.
While final totals aren’t in yet, it’s expected several thousand dollars will be raised for the Branch Area Food Pantry with the fundraising event.
