Sounds like you have heard the same story. Funny!!!
The La. fellow once told me "eating is an art like packing a trunk. first you start with the large stuff, then you just keep poking little bits down in the corner until every spot is full!"
He told that to me personally, it is not a story that was related to me by someone else!

There has been a rumor in Pentecost over the last few years about some well know, but large (body mass) Preachers that have been reported to have closed down some local ALL-You-Can-Eat Buffets in Lousiana for eating most if not all of the foods on the Buffet line, well this linked website gives some credibility to the rumor and story.
What have you heard and does this settle it for you?
If the sign says "all you can eat" then they have to bite it....because those that over eat, are made up for for those of us, which is the majoirty can't eat enough to make it worth while....I get full usually after my first plate and don't have room for seconds....

lol.....i know exactly who you are talking about! lol
Gluttony... the least preached on sin in Pentecost!
I've seen really large people go to buffets and only eat two plates full, while my husband, average sized, goes back three and four times! Most people who get the buffet go up two or three times at most.
I wonder if people just automatically watch larger people, thinking they are going to eat more?
... and I also wonder how many times these men went up.

If you ever sit and eat with this preacher you will KNOW that he feels it is an art. He carefully cuts each piece of food in bite size pieces and then he slowly consumes his food and savors every bite! It is an art!

my understanding was that it was 3 preachers, one from Louisiana, one from West Virginia, one from Virginia and they were at GC in some other place where they shut down a buffett.
Aw shucks, thas nuthin'. Me and a friend named Nathan, did that Red Lobster 35 years ago. The cook came out of the back saying, "I want'a see the fool what's eatin' all my popcorn shrimp."
