Burger Champ - Shawn Malek holds a gift certificate and is also presented with a basketful of snacks from K&L Lanes’ owner Doug Heckman for winning K&L’s annual Fat Tuesday Burger-Eating Contest. People pack the Gowanda bowling alley each year to watch super eaters down as many of the tasty cheeseburgers in a two-hour period as they can. Malek beat out last year’s winner Ben Hewitt by a bite. The results were as follows: Malek, 10 and a bite; Hewitt, 10; Bill Friedman, 7; Bob Payne, 6-1/2; Nakai Gray, 6-1/4; and Clay Moden (WYRK morning man), 5. (Submitted photo)
