This looks like the same deal. Its confusing. It mentions the 5/3rd as the name but it weighs 4 lbs. It has 5 1/3 patties.

Mich. baseball park to offer 4,800-calorie burgers

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — Well, at least the salsa is low-cal.
The West Michigan Whitecaps, a minor league baseball team, will be offering up major league cholesterol, carbohydrates and calories in an enormous hamburger being added to the menu this year at the Fifth Third Ballpark.
The 4-pound, $20 burger features five beef patties, five slices of cheese, nearly a cup of chili and liberal doses of salsa and corn chips, all on an 8-inch sesame-seed bun. That's a lot of dough!
The Grand Rapids Press reports that anyone who eats the entire 4,800-calorie behemoth in one sitting will receive a special T-shirt. Saner fans can divide it up with a pizza cutter and share.
Stadium sponsor Fifth Third Bank is based in Cincinnati.

You would probably wind up wearing half of it on your clothes, eh?

I think it would scare the bejabbers out of many kids!

Now that would be a challenge to eat while sitting in one's seat at a ball game.

Why can't I buy a happy meal with a share of Fifth Third stock?

The stuff on the bottom is the chili

They should allow you to purchase one in exchange for a single share of Fifth Third stock, which was in recent years valued at around 50 bucks

I can feel my stomach rolling over and starting to throw up in my mouth a little.

We have a 5/3rd field for the Dayton Dragons. Is it the same food service in both?

We have pizza, which feeds a family of four, and I don't think it costs $20, unless you are someone who feels the need to load it up with toppings so much that you don't even know what you are eating.
