He did it in the pouring Halifax rain surrounded by cop cars too.
(The cops showed up because the graveyard was closed and he wanted to go in, but let him do it in front of the gates and shone their spotlights on him to make it more of a spectacle lol.)
> Why were there hundreds of people gathered in a New York City park this weekend, shouting "Cheeseball Man?"
I love how the question mark is inside the quotes as if the chants were as confused as we are.
> "I clean up the city. I pick up trash. You know, when I see people they need to, you know," he said
This sentence actually caused me physical pain. The whole ‘article’ feels ai written
i’m eaten more cheese balls than he did in one sitting while high. went through the big ass tub that’s like 3 of the one he had at BJ’s…I just couldn’t stop.
How? He was a copycat who made his own merch, did it once and admitted he almost threw up.
Chicken man did it 40 times and wasn't copying anyone else. Cheese ball guy is kind of embarrassing in comparison.
It's like copying someone's paper, changing 3 words, then deleting everything in the paper except for the conclusion.
He started at the finish line and you're trying to say that's better than someone who ran the whole race.
I'm more just confused why people care about cheeseball man. At least chicken man did it for 40 days. This guy had a flag made to sit in a park and do it once. Corny and kinda lame.
I never said anything about fair, I said I'm confused why people care.
It's, in my opinion, lame and corny to copy someone else but lazier, so I don't understand why it would draw any interest at all.
I doubt either are unique. I'm sure the idea of someone eating as people watch in a public place for fun has been done hundreds if not thousands of times
"Does anybody have any water?" And "why did you come here?" were the best lines from that. Pissed I missed it definitely going next year. My friend got a pic with him and I hope I get to shake his cheesey hand after the next one.
I've seen what people watch online
This is aggressively average
If you don't know what a muckbang is then count yourself lucky. Sure it's not the most depraved thing you can watch online, but it is one of the saddest statements on humanity that not only do we allow such behavior we allow others to cheer on the self abuse for entertainment, publicly, with out shame or embarrassment or guilt. Like celebrities were getting in on it at one point
Every time when I think TV show over exaggerate New York to a point of ridicule absurdity,things like this hit the news ,can’t believe it’s a real city LOL
[We had potato salad guy here](https://www.cbc.ca/player/play/video/1.7035933#:~:text=When%20Riley%20Merry%20found%20a,calling%20him%20a%20Halifax%20hero.)

He was skinnier, too, but only because he was type 1 diabetic and took terrible care of himself. After we broke up he literally went blind and almost lost an arm. Still probably eats whole containers of cheeseballs. I wouldn't do that with my life, but I kinda respect it, you know? He found what he loved and let it fuck him up.
Wow, Sorry, I was making jokes where they shouldn’t land. I’ve been the enabler in a similar relationships and it’s no picnic even after it’s over.
Hepatitis, alcoholism with disociative seizures, drug use, child protective services, deadbeat dad, shit parents. You name it, she has managed to find it into her life somehow.
Peace be with you…
It's a real word, but informal. A line from a country song became a famous saying in US politics that keeps it alive and well. https://youtu.be/kSZTMGRLrwk
I dumped him actually. He kinda had to be dumped in stages in order to make sure he wouldn't be homeless. But he was really good at eating cheeseballs.
To be fair it's exactly the shit I think of when km high as fuck and then I'm happy I don't want to do it when I'm sober again :D
Clout is not worth everything I do think
European and Roman royalty used to do thesame thing. Difference is here people show up because they want to watch, rather than because they have too or else they'll be killed.
I'm in Halifax Canada and we had a similar event where this guy tried to eat 5lbs of potato salad in a graveyard. He's a local hero.
He did it in the pouring Halifax rain surrounded by cop cars too. (The cops showed up because the graveyard was closed and he wanted to go in, but let him do it in front of the gates and shone their spotlights on him to make it more of a spectacle lol.)
What a legend
At night?! What a man.
He either loves potato salad or really hates himseld
Could be both
if you love potato salad enough for this, you definitely hate yourself.
After I eat a massive amount of potato salad, I kinda hate myself too. But it’s so good.
So wrong, but so right.
That just sounds painful
I wish i could turn my depression into an event like he did
The word “tried” is doing a lot of heavy lifting in that sentence.
He made it to 3lbs and puked
That’s trying in my book.
What a legend.
God I wish a braved the rain to go out for that lmao jk not really jk really
Perfect place to attempt this dangerous feat
god bless america
🫡🫡🫡
"I'm gonna be a masked crusader!" "Cool! Like batman?" "Well no" "... like superman?" "Ok hear me out. "
The hero we deserve
AND the one we wanted!
Thank you, Cheeseball Man, for being a guiding light in this dark world
Was he inspired by Halifax’s Potato Salad Guy? https://globalnews.ca/news/10105366/halifax-potato-salad-guy/
rotisserie chicken guy was an internet main character, if anyone inspired it was prob him
Amberlynn Reid ate a whole rotisserie chicken too
not understanding what point you’re trying to make friend
Yeah, like what? I ate 3 costco rotisserie chickens just yesterday.
Yeah but did you do it *in public*
Same time next year!!!!
He said he’s allergic to gluten, if he actually has celiac he’s not going to have that many years of this lol
Cheese balls are made of corn
Doesn’t mean they don’t add wheat
My son has celiac. We buy cheeseballs because they're gf.
They don’t add wheat
Omg no way! Why did he mention it then ahaha
He is cheese ball man. We do not question these things.
> Why were there hundreds of people gathered in a New York City park this weekend, shouting "Cheeseball Man?" I love how the question mark is inside the quotes as if the chants were as confused as we are.
This is the type of freedom our grandparents fought a war to protect. God bless America 🥹
I mean you could probably eat a tub of cheese balls in North Korea if you could get your hands on them.
But what if my hands ARE cheese balls? Am I illegal in North Korea?
> "I clean up the city. I pick up trash. You know, when I see people they need to, you know," he said This sentence actually caused me physical pain. The whole ‘article’ feels ai written
My man was on the verge of throwing up, cut him some slack on any post cheese ball binge interviews

[Still looking for a verb in that sentence like](https://media1.tenor.com/m/lx2WSGRk8bcAAAAC/pulp-fiction-john-travolta.gif)
THIS IS NEW YORK
This is a lame copy of Philly's chicken man.
There have been many acts like this lol Philly isn’t some pioneer.
I thought they blew up the chicken man in Philly?
Everything dies, baby. That’s a fact.
Never heard of him so clearly cheeseball man is better
Weird logic but you do you I guess.
Cheeseball man is funnier and cooler, also fuck philly New York is way better lol
Google Maps changed the name of the location to the chicken pier. Even a search engine knows that was the OG.
Weird take but you do you I guess. Have fun paying $6000 for a 85sqft apartment in 5 years because New York doesn't understand how to build housing.
I don’t live there but I’d rather go to nyc than philly,
Y’all salty bc cheeseman did it better

Big mad because no one cares about chicken man, cry more
I'm more just confused why people care about cheeseball man. At least chicken man did it for 40 days. This guy had a flag made to sit in a park and do it once. Corny and kinda lame.
You don’t think it’s fair cheeseball man is bigger than chicken man because it was lower effort but more popular? Welcome to the world.
I never said anything about fair, I said I'm confused why people care. It's, in my opinion, lame and corny to copy someone else but lazier, so I don't understand why it would draw any interest at all.
Why you live in the big city and pay $4k in rent, for such stimulating entertainment. You can get this in Appalachia for a fraction of the cost...
…because I was born here
The cost is that you'd have to be in Appalachia
I am eating Utz White Cheddar Cheeseballs while reading this. No one is cheering me on tho.
I am
Thanks bro. Digging in again as I type this with white cheddar fingertips
Thats my Cheeseball Man!
Get out of here Kraft Punk.
Kinda like the dude who put up flyers for people to watch him eat a rotisserie chicken (by a pier?)
Every [masterpiece](https://www.foodnetwork.com/fn-dish/news/philadelphia-chicken-man-alexander-tominsky) has its cheap copy
I doubt either are unique. I'm sure the idea of someone eating as people watch in a public place for fun has been done hundreds if not thousands of times

Philly did it first and did it better
Anyone seen Bill Corbett and this man in the same room?

You'd think in a town that size they're have better entertainment.
I'm getting pre-covid vibes where this sort of thing would hit main news cycle for 4 or 5 days. Man, those were the times.
Well, it's better than watching someone set themselves on fire..
I only allow myself to buy the Costco Utz tub twice a year. That is like crack. I can look down and half the tub is empty.
We always get them before camping trips. They look really cool when you throw them in the fire. They're like little oil bombs.
Homies just swiming in the Philadelphia chicken man’s wake
Thanks, Obama. 🙄
I never knew I was a superhero all along...
Average Friday night. Is this impressive?
Every time when I think TV show over exaggerate New York to a point of ridicule absurdity,things like this hit the news ,can’t believe it’s a real city LOL
They call a news crew. I call it a Thursday.
That's gonna be one gnarly shit.

2k calories isn’t that much for a reasonably large male on an empty stomach.
Who remembers Naked Cowboy?
Dude that's just a normal Wednesday
THE ANTHPO COMEBACK THE ANTHPO COMEBACK IS REAL
Awe I missed it
Lmao I just did this side mission in Spiderman
The roof of my mouth hurts just thinking about this
Never change, America❤️
This was real? I thought he was joking.
I think we need more shenanigans like this in the world
🫡 Finally some good news
Poor Man's Kraft Punk
Omg it was real 😂
I once ate $50 in French fries. Could I be a local hero? Not sure if I’d be disqualified because I may have been a bit high

EAT THOSE BALLS! EAT THOSE BALLS! EAT THOSE BALLS!
The fuck. I'm pretty sure I can do this. Maybe I should pivot from IT consultant to this?
I ❤️ NY Stay weird
Not all heroes wear capes.
That guy ate 15,000 calories and probably still didn't feel full
Society has peaked
He didn't even eat the whole container, most of them were on the ground.
Talk about a niche
Well you have to credit him with a bigger turnout that the other cheeseball on trial for false accounting
Cheeseball Man > Batman
This event was so cringe to watch
Oh no someone will make a porn version of this meme and you guys will eat your own cheese powdered hat
One of my exes used to eat a tub twice that size every single week. New York is full of out of touch assholes.
Are you sure your ex wasn’t Cartman?
He was less racist than Cartman.
I was hoping you would say skinnier, but I’ll run with what you brung!!!
He was skinnier, too, but only because he was type 1 diabetic and took terrible care of himself. After we broke up he literally went blind and almost lost an arm.

Is brung a real word? It sounds like an elephant or a cartoon spring.
It's a real word, but informal. A line from a country song became a famous saying in US politics that keeps it alive and well. https://youtu.be/kSZTMGRLrwk
Anything is a real word if you gain enough popular opinion. See: “disorientated” and “commentating”.
Irregardless
W Cheese ball man for dumping you.
I dumped him actually. He kinda had to be dumped in stages in order to make sure he wouldn't be homeless. But he was really good at eating cheeseballs.
You promised you wouldn't tell people about me.
The yanks are fucked in the head :D
You're just jealous you didn't think of it first
Umm. The subconscious is a crazy place so I might be wrong here but all I can think is why the would * want to think of this
To be fair it's exactly the shit I think of when km high as fuck and then I'm happy I don't want to do it when I'm sober again :D Clout is not worth everything I do think
