Top: Eric Humphrey of Grand Marais didn’t win the Sven & Ole’s Pizza pickled herring eating contest, but he gave it a good try and seemed to be enjoying himself. The winner was John Swanson, who has won the eating event for the last nine years! Above left: Brian Beck of Princeton won the Sven & Ole’s pizza eating contest 15 years ago. He returned to Fisherman’s Picnic to try again and gave it a valiant effort, but was beaten by Spencer Olson of Chanhassen, MN (above right).
