      The West Michigan Whitecaps are a Class A minor league baseball team in Comstock Park, Michigan. Their home field is Fifth Third Park (presumably named for the bank).

      The Whitecaps have developed something of a reputation recently for gastronomic excess, serving up at park concession stands such delights as deep-fried twinkies, deep-fried Pepsi (?), and whole drumsticks of turkey. They've just introduced the "Fifth Third Burger" made up of five one-third pound beef patties (get it? hahaha!). The enormous 1.67 lb. burger is served on an eight inch sesame seed bun, made especially for the Whitecaps by Nantucket Baking Co. of Grand Rapids. It has five slices of American cheese, nacho cheese, a cup of chili, salsa,  Fritos, lettuce, tomato, and sour cream. Jalapenos are optional. The whole thing weighs about four pounds. It costs $20.

      The Fifth Third burger contains 4,800 calories (9x that of a Quarter Pounder w/ cheese), 300 gm fat, 744 mg cholesterol, and 10,000 mg sodium. It comes sliced into four pieces (they use a pizza cutter), and is intended as a meal for whole families. If you can eat a whole one yourself in one sitting, however, they give you a T-shirt.

      A dietary group in Washington thinks the burger should come with a warning!

        I was curious about the deep-fried Pepsi thing, so I looked into it.

        It's actually a Pepsi-flavored batter (shaped into spheres) which gets deep-fried. Then, it's topped with Pepsi syrup, Pepsi-flavored frosting, and whipped cream.

        People say it kinda tastes like Pepsi. Kinda.

          I'd just eat the cup of chili and be over it.

            i wonder if anyone can actually finish that whole burger alone (and survive)

            Dear Lord, I pray for:
            Wisdom  to  understand  my  man,
            Love  to  forgive  him,  and
            Patience  for  his  moods.
            Because,  Lord,  if  I  pray  for  Strength,  I'll beat  him to  death !

              LBC wonders if the T-shirt is for LIPITOR???

              Lipitor=Atorvastatin

              Atorvastatin (INN) (pronounced /əˌtɔrvəˈstætən/) (Lipitor, Pfizer), is a member of the drug class known as statins, used for lowering blood cholesterol. It also stabilizes plaque and prevents strokes through anti-inflammatory and other mechanisms.

                Doesn't Burger King have a sandwich (the Stacker) which goes up to 5 pieces of meat, cheese, and bacon?  Perhaps the patties are smaller…

                Are there any chain burgers that come close to this size?

                I remember a university friend who would regularly go through at least half a dozen Big Macs in a sitting.  The McD's people were afraid of him, even though he was a pretty small, scrawny guy.

                [you], are you staring at my crotch?

                  Scotland has deep fried candy bars, pizza and pretty much anything else you can think of.

                    I just went to BK's website and saw a quad stacker, but no 5.

                    At In-N-Out burger you can order them as big as you like, seriously, anything you want. They will make a 100 patty hamburger for you for a party if you want, no joke.
                    I usually go for a 4X4 (4 pieces of meat). Good burgers…
