- Thursday, 16 Feb 2006
Count on the Golden Palace online casino to find a way to take a subject matter like Valentine's Day and turn it upside down. Over the years, the online gambling operator has given new meaning to the term gambling entertainment. Used to being in the limelight, the online casino never fails to disappoint its loyal fans. This week, the online gambling site held a Valentine's Day Chocolate Massacre, which is basically their version of a competitive eating event.
The concept of the event organized by the online casino is to award a cash prize reward to the person who can eat the most chocolate. The online gambling giant didn’t pick chocolate by accident. Chocolate is sort of like the official food for Valentine's Day. Chocolate is one of the most common Valentine's Day gifts, so it’s only fitting that the online casino used it. Patrick Bertoletti from Chicago beat out the competition eating more than any other contestant (nearly 2 pounds) on route to winning the $5000 grand prize.
Richard Rowe CEO of the online gambling site said, “Congratulations to Patrick for his amazing win. These competitions are always fun, exciting, and definite crowd-pleasers. Richard Shea, president of the International Federation of Competitive Eating said, “The GoldenPalace.com Valentine's Day Chocolate Massacre displayed the incredible passion competitive eaters have for food. It is a passion that can be, at once, both violent and beautiful”.
