'Eat that bird!' Man becomes local celeb after scoffing 40 rotisserie chickens

A man became a local celebrity after eating a whole rotisserie chicken every day for 40 days - and on the final day a crowd gathered around him and chanted 'Eat that bird' as he scoffed the last one. Alexander Tominsky, 31, has been dubbed 'the Philadelphia Chicken Man' after embarking on the unusual challenge.

Alexander admitted that even to him it "sounds weird", but he "felt like I was doing it for a very important reason". He originally planned to do just 30 days but added another 10 on when he felt he hadn't gone far enough - but says he now needs time to "repair".
