LAS VEGAS (KSNV) — Siegel’s Bagelmania will host some of the top-ranked eaters to set a bagel-eating world record this Sunday.

The deli and bakery says the inaugural World Bagel Eating Championship will kick off at 11 a.m. Sunday, Jan. 15, in honor of National Bagel Day.

Members of the Major League Eating circuit will have eight minutes to eat as many bagels with cream cheese as possible. At stake are the championship title and $7,500 in cash prizes.

Competitors include Las Vegas local Derek Hendrickson, the No. 21-ranked competitive eater, along with all-stars like Geoffrey Esper, Miki Sudo and Nick Wehry.

“The best eaters in the world deserve the best bagels, and we’re thrilled by the opportunity to share our Bagels with these champions,” Stephen Siegel, owner of Siegel’s Bagelmania, said in a press release. “May the best competitive bagel eater come out on top.”

Guests who attend the championship event will receive a commemorative t-shirt, while supplies last.
