Geoffrey Esper is a quiet, industrious man who says very little but eats very much. It is said the first word he ever spoke was "work." He is a true multi-disciplinary eater—as comfortable eating 83 slices of John's Incredible Pizza in 10 minutes as he is in eating 281 Hooters wings in the same amount of time. He is the 2017 and 2019 Hooters wing-eating Champion and the champion of the Fortune Bay Indian Taco and the Jack's Donuts Donut Holes. On June 17, 2023 Esper secured his third straight strawberry shortcake eating record by downing 21 pounds of the treat in eight minutes. He does not boast about these and many other achievements, though. He is defined by humility and a strength of character all too rare these days. MLE officials have, though, seen him smile, despite reports to the contrary.
