Gov. Quinn Takes The Cinnamon Challenge

2012_02_03_quinn_cinnamon.png

Gov. Pat Quinn joined Jonathon Brandmeier on WGN this morning, and Brandmeier dared Quinn to take the cinnamon challenge.

For those who don't know, the challenge is to swallow a spoonful of cinnamon in less than 60 seconds without using water and without vomiting or inhaling the powder, which is pretty painful.

As you'll see below, Quinn was successful. In fact, it's rather anticlimactic.

    Well, I think he technically broke the "no water" rule, since it looks like he took a drink to help finish it off.

    Kimmel had the best segment on this the other night.

    Shouldn't Quinn be out there solving the State's problems -- like a shark fin ban?

    He expects the residents of Illinois to swallow his crap all the time, so it's only fair I suppose.
