Believe it or not, the Guinness Book of World Records includes a record for most potato chips crunched at the same time. This we know because Guinness signed off on the record set by 39,203 baseball fans who crunched at once at Friday's New York Mets-Cincinnati Reds game at Citi Field.
At 7:35 p.m. EDT, in the middle of the second inning, fans were instructed to open the bags of chips they were given upon entry to the stadium and participate in the Big City Crunch, a promotion for Wise Snacks.
Danny Girton Jr., the adjudication manager on-site from Guinness, said there was a definite crunch sound from all over the ballpark and, based upon the audible and visual evidence, he certified the world record.
Then, as has been their routine of late, the Mets went out and were crunched by the Reds, 3-0.
