The Krystal Square Off Five was held at the Chattanooga Riverfront Saturday afternoon.

Months of training and days of starvation, all came down to 8 minutes of madness.

For the first time in Square Off history, the qualifier pitted five amateurs against professional eaters for a chance to win a spot in the finals in September.

Saturday's winner - 41-year-old Humble Bob Shoudt from Pennsylvania.

Shoudt will face Joey Chestnut who holds the world record of eating 103 Krystal hamburgers in 8 minutes.

Humble Bob adds, "I always go into a contest thinking I can win but I never thought I would be doing this. Fortunately I can right now."

And our own Meterologist Brian Smith competed in this year's event.

He came in fifth by eating 18 Krystal burgers.
