For my fantasy football punishment, I will be attempting the Waffle House challenge.
I must stay in a Waffle House for 24 hours. For every waffle I eat, an hour is subtracted from my sentence. Please join me on this journey.

Gave myself an hour to settle in and work up an appetite…. I just placed an order for 6 waffles

2 waffles down. No butter, separate plate for minuscule dipping pic.twitter.com/baeuIxEBip

I got an order of sausage to get the taste of waffles out of my mouth.
— Cyrus Wittig (@CyWittig) January 5, 2020
Big mistake, IMO. But let’s continue…
1 hour and 5 waffles down. 18 hours left on the clock.

I am learning that as Waffles get cold, they change flavors. Not for the better.

This is a war of attrition, but I can’t say enough how supportive the @WaffleHouse staff has been. #TeamTogether

Multiple people have asked… unfortunately this is not a “Coach Carter” situation where I can have friends eat waffles on my behalf. This is my mountain to climb, my cross to bear, my devil to devour

I can’t believe I thought I was going to finish by the time the Eagles game started. I have been extremely humbled.

Sprite and waffles… pic.twitter.com/Gt6OZAgir6

Took me 1 hour 45 to eat 6 waffles. It’s taken me 2 hours to eat 1 more.

They have begun a shift change at Waffle House…. the new staff has been informed of the challenge. We’re all in this together.
— Cyrus Wittig (@CyWittig) January 5, 2020
Just ordered a blueberry with the hope of shaking things up in Flavortown
— Cyrus Wittig (@CyWittig) January 5, 2020
My waffle chef’s shift just ended. He comes back at 8. This is the circle of life
— Cyrus Wittig (@CyWittig) January 5, 2020
The count is 8
— Cyrus Wittig (@CyWittig) January 5, 2020
It is 4 PM. I arrived at Waffle House at 9 AM. My whole body hurts. My efforts are futile.
— Cyrus Wittig (@CyWittig) January 5, 2020
I am honestly scared of what another waffle will do to my body. Only one way to find out…. ORDER UP!
— Cyrus Wittig (@CyWittig) January 5, 2020
Also. 9 are down. I feel good. I feel like I can go right into 10
— Cyrus Wittig (@CyWittig) January 5, 2020
So, at this point, he’s been there for 8 hours and has eaten 9 waffles. If he eats no more he can’t leave until Midnight.
Waffle #10 is kicking my ass

2 screaming children is not what the doctor ordered
— Cyrus Wittig (@CyWittig) January 5, 2020
HUGE timing. The screaming children left just as I’m going back on offense. No crowd noise
— Cyrus Wittig (@CyWittig) January 6, 2020
I want 12 so badly but I just don’t know if it’s in the cards
— Cyrus Wittig (@CyWittig) January 6, 2020
Oh dear god my stomach pic.twitter.com/oOHCYDaFo2

Ok I think that was a blessing in disguise. My stomach is re-settled. Final waffle coming up in 10
— Cyrus Wittig (@CyWittig) January 6, 2020
I LOVE ALL OF YOU!!!!
— Cyrus Wittig (@CyWittig) January 6, 2020
My stomach is still expanding and I don’t anticipate sleeping for a while, so I think I’ll do what any sane human would, and watch all the fight scenes from Lord of The Rings Two Towers
— Cyrus Wittig (@CyWittig) January 6, 2020
I don’t think there’s any chance I sleep tonight. It’s not the waffles, it’s the sprite
— Cyrus Wittig (@CyWittig) January 6, 2020
So, when I first saw this I was all about it. I KNEW I could dominate. After this, maybe it’ll be a hard pass.
