The popular ‘9 x 9 Challenge’ hit the baseball scene a few years ago and exploded in popularity where baseball fans eat 9 hot dogs and drink 9 beers in 9 innings. Some just eat the hot dogs or drink the beers. With the speed of baseball games these days it’s challenging, to be sure, but what exactly are these challengers doing with the other 21 hours in the day?!
Taking full advantage of every waking hour, Rory aka ‘@nofnwaydawg’ on TikTok, put together a 9 x 9 x 9 challenge as his fantasy football punishment. Most people are not capable of finishing this challenge. It definitely requires having that dawg in you.
The New 9 x 9 x 9 Challenge: Brutal Fantasy Football Punishment
Throughout the course of the day he must (1) run 9 miles, (2) 9 holes of golf, (3) eat 9 donuts, (4) drink 9 shots of espresso, (5) 9 ski runs in Killington, Vermont, (6) 9 Zyns throughout the day, then he tacks on the (7) 9 hot dogs, (8) 9 beers, and (9) 9 innings of baseball in Boston at a Red Sox game.
So to recap, on top of the typical 9 x 9 challenge of 9 beers and 9 hot dogs in 9 innings he is also running 9 miles, bombing 9 ski runs, eating 9 donuts, drinking 9 shots of espresso, ripping 9 Zyns, and playing 9 holes of golf. To complete this in one waking day it requires efficient planning and execution.
Not too long ago we came across the 6 x 6 Challenge as a fantasy football punishment that wasn’t too far off from this one but it still fell short of this new challenge’s high bar. Can he pull it off? Let’s take a look:
@nofnwaydawg It’s a marathon and a sprint #9×9 #killington #fenway
The top comment sums it all up, they wrote “The ‘Best Day In Human History’ Challenge” which sums up how most people feel when they came across this video. Even the official Dunkin account on TikTok hopped in the comments and wrote “did we just witness the ultimate boys day?”
Many agreed that with all nine challenges set forth, the 9 espressos seemed to be the most dicey. To that I would say that it is entirely dependent upon one’s average daily caffeine intake. As someone who drinks 3-4 cups of coffee every single day with the occasional Celsius thrown in the mix, I don’t think I’d have any problems at all taking down 9 espressos. But as a snowboarder, 9 ski runs would prove challenging. I’m also unsure if I have ever eaten 9 donuts in a day, let alone 9 donuts and 9 hot dogs in the same day. That could be dicey.
Props to him for having the best day ever though. Calling this a ‘fantasy football punishment‘ when it’s really a blessing in disguise is kind of wild.
