Lucky Wingette sidelined due to foot injury

With Tiffany Heller sitting out Wing Bowl 17 (Friday at Wachovia Center) with a foot injury, it's anybody's game. For the past four years Heller has served as a Wingette for the winning eater. First she cheered on Bill "El Wingador" Simmons in Wing Bowl 13, then spent three years alongside Joey Chestnut for his three-year streak. The busty brunette says that she will be listening to the broadcast at home, on 610-WIP and we encouraged her to also follow the action on Philly.com. "It was more of a show with the professional eaters," Heller, 25, said yesterday. "Who knows this year, though, because they're all new." The good-luck-charm admits that even while paired with Chestnut she "always rooted for the underdog." Now she can again. Everyone's an underdog this year.
