The Eating Contest

In Fyfe, Scotland, there's an annual tench-eating competition [tench are small fish like sardines].

The world champion, Sven from Finland, was in Fyfe to defend his title.

Local boy Hix won through to the final and it was a contest between him and Sven.

The result was that Hix ate 27 tench and Sven managed only nine - so Hix was crowned world champion.

The headline?

One To Three For Fyfe's Hix, Sven Ate Nine Tench.
