Gordon Ramsay of Hell’s Kitchen fame has recently posted on his official website that he will be arriving in Sewanee, TN this Saturday, March 7, to participate in The University of the South’s 3rd annual BBQ contest. According to anonymous sources, Chef Rick Wright, head of McClurg dining hall, worked in a restaurant with Ramsay long ago, where Ramsay frequently berated the young Rick Wright with obscenities. One altercation allegedly resulted in a fist fight over one chef’s insistence on serving squash with every meal. We can only hope Ramsay tones down his antics while at Sewanee.
Although Chef Rick has not yet mentioned plans for the famous British chef’s arrival in his daily e-mails, Ramsay’s post on his website has already caused a stir among students.
“Gordon what? Ramsay? That sounds kind of familiar, isn’t he a Snu?” Senior Patrick Westfall said. “I think I saw him passed out on a couch last weekend. Didn’t know he was a chef too, does he work at Shenanigans?”
Administration remains tight lipped as to where the money came from to fund Ramsay’s appearance and his flight over the pond. Freshman Ashley Stein reports, “I heard ATO brought him to Sewanee. I guess they’re tired of getting washed up rappers and are moving on to celebrity chefs. Wait, but does that mean the Yin Yang Twins aren’t coming for Spring Party anymore?!”
The past two Final Four BBQ contests have lured in students with beer available for purchase and the showing of the NCAA Men’s Final Four Basketball games. However as the BBQ Contest failed to be scheduled during the Final Four tournament this year, there are hopes that Ramsay and Rick Wright will settle their disputes on the court, street style.
“I like the barbecue contest. It’s the only Saturday evening of the year that McClurg isn’t filled with drunk students,” McClurg staff member and pizza line operator Maurice King said. “God I hate Shake Day.”
Although Gordon Ramsay’s representatives have not spoken publicly aside from the website post, sources reveal that he’s requested barbed wire table protection, 120 oz of malt liquor, and to be inducted into the Order of the Gownsman. #eatwellbewell #meatsmellbehell
