100 entrants fail at Chicago brewery's 'Cody Parkey Challenge'
CHICAGO -- How many would-be Cody Parkeys does it take to make a 43-yard field goal?
As it turns out, a lot.
Or none.
Out of 100 entrants who came and tried their luck at the same kick that brought the Chicago Bears' season to an untimely end last Sunday, exactly zero were able to get the job done -- in conditions that were, well, sub-optimal. Thirty degrees and wind and snow.
"In the snow? Yeah, it's way different, everyone's slipping all over the place," said kicker Phil Cozzi of Elmhurst, Illinois. When informed that the lone Philadelphia Eagles fan contestant wiped out, "OK good," Cozzi said.
