And Thurman will be in attendance to help judge the Saturday evening Sahlen Hot Dog Eating Contest.
"Everyone at Sahlen's is honored to have Thurman as our Official Starter for the Sahlen's 6 Hours.

We have been a long time season ticket holder and have been the Official Hot Dog of the Bills for several years." - states Joe Sahlen
