The funniest parts of these are when they cut away and a random patron says something so simple like “that’s a lot of food”

Lmao or when theyre being serious and saying "gosh thats a lot of food i just dont know if hes going to be able to pull it off..."

[@southbeachtalent]

I don't think any of those generic encouraging comments are genuine. Producers giving them some extra $ for tv material

[@MORiverFishing]

@@southbeachtalent Yep, and if you pay attention when a random customer is wearing a T-shirt with the restaurant name on it, you can usually see another shirt underneath like they just slipped it on over for the camera.

[@southbeachtalent]

@@MORiverFishing I guess that's what I don't understand this current era (or any era I guess) of television. I have no DOUBT Adam drew that crowd in the restaurant (with tv involved) and had them interested. That would've been perfect tv! I don't know why they feel the need to insult our intelligence

[@athomeoutsideanywhere7550]

Unfortunately, due to all the economic and basic human effects covid had on our community, Rocky's is closed forever. It was a major blow losing this place. It was one of my daughter's favorite places to have me take her to dinner. Rocky is a good guy and he really loved his customers and was always happy to come out and chit chat with anyone whenever business would allow it. Unfortunately, toward the end, business allowed for it a lot more often and eventually he just had to close. We will definitely miss this place. It's been a Boise standard for a long time and nothing else will ever come close to them.

[@brtt6489]

The amount he was eating was incredibly alarming but from what I read he was in relatively good health. I read the main reasons he left were he felt extremely uncomfortable after eating ridiculous amounts of food and some of the spice challenges had no artistry and used just extract rather then making a genuinely good spicy dish. Also some challenges ruined food for him like the oyster one for example.

I think the worst part of this challenge is that the guitar he wins is only a Squire 😭. For the non-guitar players, a squire is like the cheapest electric guitar that only costs around $170 (a real guitar costs at least $600 and even these are nothing compared to the $2k+ ones, so you can only imagine what the squire sounds like in comparison).

This might be the tastiest looking challenge in the shows history (and there are many). I’m sad to hear this place is closed. I would’ve definitely gone there when I eventually go to Boise. This show was so entertaining, never trying to make any kind of statement. A true American Classic. One of the last American Classic TV shows in my opinion. I know they’ve tried to reboot the show, but the guy they hired to do it just doesn’t hold a candle to Adam. And he’s a nice guy! I like him. Just doesn’t have the eating ability or the traditional charisma. Still, he’s a great guy and I appreciate the effort he’s put forth. I think Matt Stonie should be the new guy! He would destroy the challenges, and he’s a very likable person. If this ever transpires, please revert back to this comment. I deserve compensation!

After watching Randy Santel for years, watching Adam do this to himself seems almost illegal since he doesn’t really have any strategy most of the time. Just pure gluttony. That’s exploitative and it’s entertaining!

[@alexnolan1846]

I know in current interviews after he left and Casey took over that he was battling depression and feeling like absolute crap associated with the toll the food took on him and I think you can seriously see it in episodes like these. When he switches to the overacting and trying to be Captain Cool it always felt like a cry for help. Like he was saying "Look I can be cool and relevant and garner your respect, but instead Ill just sit here and shove this burger down my throat to be your stooge"
