More young people in Southeast Michigan will continue to have opportunities to make art thanks to several people attempting to eat 20 foot long brats. Ypsilanti’s Wurst Bar is hosting the first ever Wurst Challenge Thursday evening as a fundraiser for the Fly Children’s Art Center.
The challenge will include Ypsilanti Mayor Paul Schreiber and Eastern Michigan University President Susan Martin who’s bringing a team of brat eating advisors. The event is also being hosted by New Holland Brewing Company, VG Kids, and MarkMaynard.com.
The challenge will include meat and tofu brats. The event has already raised about $4,000 for the Fly Children’s Art Center as people donate for the participant they believe will eat the most sausage.
