This letter is in regard to a recent article referring to fan/student behavior at the recent basketball game between Columbia High School and Lancaster Catholic High School.
The term “food stamp” was yelled at Columbia High School students and players in an attempt to intimidate and insult the team.
As a director of the Columbia Food Bank let me make it very clear that lack of funds does not directly correlate to a lack of character. On the contrary, a vast majority of the clients we deal with every day who utilize public assistance/food stamps are decent and hard-working individuals who are seeking help to feed themselves and their families during tough times either due to financial difficulties or illness. I know of very few people who have made it through their lifetime without at one time or another needing a helping hand along the way.
The students, fans, faculty and administration of Lancaster Catholic High School should be ashamed of themselves and should make a public apology to the players, students and fans of Columbia High School.
True wealth is what you are, not what you have.

Wing Bowl is over

610 WIP's Wing Bowl is history and the trophy isn't coming to Columbia.

Dr. Digestion, otherwise known as Twin Rose Dr. Bret Daniels did make the second round of the competition, eating 71 wings in the first round. According to WIP's website, the good doctor retired as the second round opened.

The winner for the third year was Joey Chestnut -- he ate 241 (that's right) wings.
Second place went to Patrick Bertoletti with 227. El Wingador was third with 205.

The 241 wings was a new record.
