One, two, three strikes and you’re out… on a breezy July evening at Citi Field, New York City, USA, to help set a new Guinness World Records™ record for the most people eating potato chips simultaneously!

In the middle of the second inning, Guinness World Records™ Adjudicators Danny Girton Jr and Jennifer Gilmour observed as 33,756 fans opened their 0.75-oz (23.2-g) bags of Wise Potato Chips to eat and participate in the attempt – bags had been distributed to fans upon entry to the stadium.

The Guinness World Records™ record attempt was part of the Big City Crunch, the finale of a two-month New York City promotional campaign developed by Wise's sports marketing agency, Source Communications.

With one salty summer-time success established, how about an aptly sized soft drink to wash it down?

Founded in 1921, Wise Foods, Inc. is a privately held company based in Berwick, PA, that makes and sells salty snacks.

Established in 1983, Source Communications is a privately held, full-service advertising agency based in New Jersey, with offices in New York and San Diego.
