Don't wait to get to this event- tickets generally sell out 10 minutes after the gates open at 11a. Held on a Saturday one week before the Super Bowl, this event draws huge crowds. There are amateur and professional categories, as well as recognition for the hottest chili, the most traveled chili and the best presentation chili. Then there is the 'Is it really chili?' category won once by a Forestdale, Mass. couple who entered their Irish chili. Entry Fee: USD25.
