Arizona Cardinals challenging fans to eat 7-pound, $75 burger
The University of Phoenix Stadium's new burger is not for the faint of heart.
The Arizona Cardinals unveiled several new menu items for the 2018 season Tuesday, including the 7-pound Gridiron Burger, priced at $75. Those who can finish the burger in under an hour will win a Cardinals jersey and have their photo shown on the scoreboard.
UP FOR THE CHALLENGE? The Arizona Cardinals have introduced the hefty $75 Gridiron Burger. It includes 5 patties, 5 hot dogs, 5 bratwurst, 8 slices of bacon, 20 slices of American cheese, 12 ounces of fries and 8 chicken tenders.

Sean Kavanaugh, executive chef with Craft Culinary Concepts, told Katherine Fitzgerald of the Arizona Republic that three staff members took the challenge Monday, but all failed to finish.
"One of them that tried the challenge actually called in sick today," Kavanaugh said. "So we're hoping he heals okay."
