A slew of restaurants around the country challenge gourmands with meals of mammoth proportions.

        Here's one: Universal Studios Hollywood's "All You Can Eat, All Day Long"
        (for a one-day charge of $19.95/adults; $11.95/children under 40 inches tall)
        Parkgoers can load up as many times during the day at two of the park's main
        outlets, along with unlimited drinks (only through June 30)

          Universal Studios Hollywood is my idea of a perfectly awful tourist trap. Thanks for warning us, mcielwain!

            Thanks for the funny article. I like the picture (in the gallery link) of the 72 oz. steak dinner, too!

            "...former major leaguer Frank Pastore. The pitcher for the Cincinnati Reds would stop in annually at The Big Texan on his way to spring training. He never failed to put away the complete meal and he also set time records nearly every year.

            "In May 1987 he did it in 9 minutes, 31 seconds," said Bobbie Lee. "It was probably the most incredible thing I've ever seen in my life."
