HS FOOT: Get ready for a can't-believe-I-ate-the-whole-thing moment

The six Foothill League teams -- Canyon, Golden Valley, Hart, Saugus, Valencia and West Ranch -- compete in a burrito-eating contest at 8:30 p.m. Wednesday at La Salsa Restaurant in Santa Clarita.

The "Burrito Bowl" features teams of five members competing to finish a four-foot burrito.

There is more than pride on the line, too, as the winning team gets $1,000, the runner-up gets $400 and the third place team gets $250.

There are no rules other than everyone has to hold down their food. My advice would be to stick with the linemen and not the quarterbacks and kickers.
