What happened after Man v. Food?
Casey Webb visited Game Seven Grill, a sports bar situated just outside Chase Field's main entrance in downtown Phoenix, home of the Arizona Diamondbacks. Before the challenge, Webb spoke with Diamondbacks pitchers Andrew Chafin and Patrick Corbin and manager Torey Lovullo, then helped prepare the wings in the kitchen alongside former outfielder Luis Gonzalez. The challenge paired eight wings coated in a cayenne-and-citrus sauce with a concentrated habanero extract rated at roughly 1.5 million Scoville units, to be finished within six minutes. Only a small handful of challengers had succeeded in the challenge's several years of existence. Webb ate the first four wings quickly but the heat overtook him, and he ran out of time with one wing left. Game Seven Grill operated as a stadium-adjacent bar and grill for Diamondbacks fans. According to Phoenix New Times, the Arizona Diamondbacks stated they mutually decided not to reopen the space and planned to redevelop it with a new concept for the 2022 season.
