I'll wait in line, thanks.
I would have never won on Fear Factor.

I don't like roach. It's too crunchy for me.

I'm with you Olivia! I can't even watch the show. Bleh!!! Now, if they were offering a million dollars, I might consider it. :p

Heeeyyyy.....
What if you started to put it in your mouth, and then it ran down your throat really fast and crawled into one of your lungs??

We are talking a bout a BIG FERKIN' 3-inch cockroach, people. A Madagascar hissing cockroach, the kind that rears up and hisses when it feels threatened (or insulted). And my guess is, the idea of being eaten would be fairly insulting to most of them.
I'm not gonna do it. No way. But I want to see other people doing it.

Can I beat it senseless with a hammer first?

People eat these things all the time. I've seen it on Fear Factor and Survivor for sure so I'm pretty sure they are edible. I'd do it because skipping lines at amusement parks is the only way to go.
I was in Orlando for part of my honeymoon & the wife and I got a 2 day pass for Universal Studios. The first day we figured we'd be economical and not buy the $50 'Express Pass' pass. We were there almost all day and got on to a grand total of 3 rides. The next day, we bought the Express Pass just because we weren't about to stand around in lines all day again and I'd say we easily got on to 12-15 rides going that route and we were back to our hotel by like 6. The first day we were there for about 8 hours and got 3 rides. The second day we were there about 5 hours and got over a dozen.
Skip the Line passes are definately the way to go at the amusement parks so if I ever head down to Chicago for a 6 Flags outing, I'll be eating cockroach for sure. My wife would have a harder time with it, but I'd make her do it or else tell her to have fun waiting in line while I hit up all the rides.

Yeah, those ones are ok to eat....although I gotta say that I think I'd prefer it to be cooked first. Don't like the idea of something dying for this kind of amusement though, and I'd feel bad for doing it. If you did it though, you'd want to make sure you chewed it pretty well, if you did it in a hurry just to get it down, just think, you might mave bits and peices still moving inside you...tickling your aesophagus, throat, stomach...
Cheap bastards...with all the people that would draw in just to watch idiots eat live roaches, you'd think they'd offer the person that does it a free day pass at least.

Maybe it should be TWO Madagascar Hissing Cockroaches. Get two of those down, legs and all, free day pass plus line cutting pass.
That would discourage some of the people who might eat one really quickly before thinking about it.

I'd give it my all.I may not be able to eat them but I'd sure give it a try.
Method To Prepare a Cockroach for Human Consumption :
Take a fresh cockroach.
1) Remove & discard the solid wing covering flaps.
2) Slice off the head and arse area.
3) Pull off the legs.
4) Make an incision along the back of what's left & crack it open down the middle, revealing the fleshy insides.
5) Place your opened 'roach under a low grill for two minutes.
6) Artistically present it on a plate (i.e. put a slice of lemon next to it).
7) Yummy! Use a teaspoon and fingers! It looks like a black olive!
