Send Your Halloween Pics For Chance To Win $50 Krystal Gift Card

Tim "Gravy" Brown's Hannibal Lecter costume for Krystal Square Off IV was more suitable for Halloween than a competitive eating event.

We’re in more of a “treat” than “trick” mood today so to celebrate Halloween we’re going to give away a $50 Krystal Gift Card to the person with the best Halloween costume. The only requirement is that you snap the photo while in costume at a Krystal restaurant tonight and email the photo to us by Sunday to info@krystalist.com.

You can also upload the photo to your Flickr, Facebook or MySpace page and send us a link to it.

The more original the better which means dressing up as The Joker or Sarah Palin like everyone else is this Halloween may not cut it unless it’s really, really good. Like Tina Fey good. Bonus if you dress up in something Krystal-related like, say, a Krystal Chik.

Happy trick or treating tonight. Be sure to be safe, and most of all, have fun!

Krystal News You Can Use

Hip-hop recording artist and competitive eater Badlands Booker recently released a song about Krystal on his Facebook page.

Hip-hop recording artist and competitive eater Badlands Booker recently released a song about Krystal on his Facebook page.

We’ve got several pieces of news for you to chew on this morning.  Most of them are Krystal Square Off V related, as the qualifying tour is really getting interesting with the championship event only 16 days, 5 hours and 53 minutes away.  But there’s some other bits of info scattered throughout as well - like how you can win a $100 Krystal Gift Card this weekend.

The Nashville Qualifier for the Krystal Square Off V will take place tomorrow at 2:00 p.m. at the Tennessee State Fair, and according to the Krystal Square Off Blog, tomorrow’s contest “is shaping up to be the most fiercely contested showdown of the season.”  Click here to find out why.

It’s a busy weekend for the Krystal Square Off V tour.  Immediately after the 8-minute contest in Nashville, the hamburger-eating tour will hit the road for Knoxville where Sunday’s qualifier will be held at the Tennessee Valley Fair at 2:00 p.m.  This event has shaped up to be a Who’s Who of competitive eating with fan favorites such as Tim “Eater X” Janus and Crazy Legs Conti set to battle it out.

According to our sister blog, Takeru Kobayashi, the Japanese eating legend and three-time Krystal Square Off Champion, just confirmed that he will compete at the regional qualifier in Birmingham on Saturday, Sept. 20.  This is big news because it all but guarantees a Joey Chestnut vs. Kobayashi match up at this year’s championship finals in Chattanooga.

As we mentioned earlier this week, the Krystal in Hixson, Tenn., will host the first of three Sample Saturdays tomorrow between 1:00 p.m. and 4:00 p.m.  Not only will you be able to sample Krystal’s expansive menu items for free, but you can also enter a drawing for a $100 Krystal Gift Card.

Hip-hop recording artist and competitive eating legend Eric “Badlands” Booker has released a new song about Krystal on his Facebook page.  Booker is one of the “originals” in the sport of competitive eating, and he’ll be coming off a two-year retirement tomorrow when he attempts to qualify for the Krystal Square Off V in Nashville.

If we’ve told you once, we’ve told you twice - but head over to the Krystal Square Off Blog for all the latest hamburger happenings.  You can also follow the action live from this weekend’s contest at Twitter.com/ksquareoff.
