WWE Wrestlers In Pre-Wrestlemania WING OFF
John Cena and The Rock are 2 days from squaring off for the WWE championship belt in Wrestlemania 29, but TMZ found another competition going down today -- WING-OFF 1 ... there will be bones!
We got pics of 3 WWE stars ... Yoshi Tatsu, JTG, and the Great Khali doing battle over 3 massive platters of hot wings at the Chili's in Hoboken, NJ.
We're told Khali choked down the most wings before the other 2 guys had to tap out.
Even more amazing -- we're told the enormous meals only set 'em back $40 ... and all 3 hit the gym afterward.
Though we're guessing they made one crucial pit-stop first.

Kim Kardashian I CAN'T STOP EATING ... CHALUPAS
Kim Kardashian was faced with a choice the likes of which haven't been faced since Sophie -- papas or paparazzi.
Kim joined her sisters for what was supposed to be a delicious lunch at Casa Vega in the Valley Thursday ... but the pesky pappers were blocking her entrance and wouldn't follow instructions to "MAKE A HOLE!"
As the smells of the fried burritos and chimichangas wafted to her waiting SUV, Kim made the hardest decision since agreeing to let Ray J really have his way ... She left.
But nacho fast. Kim drove around the block and returned for the family fiesta.

The Game's Waiter $6,000 Tip Was Really Only $250
The Game told a $5,750 bald-faced lie about dropping a massive tip on a waiter -- at least according to the waiter himself ... TMZ has learned.
First, Game's version of what went down. The rapper had an Easter Sunday meal at Capital Grille in West Hollywood ... and then tweeted about leaving a $6,000 tip for his waiter, Eme Ikwuakor.
But now Ikwuakor wants to clear up a few things ... as in a few less zeros on his gratuity.
According to the waiter ... Game handed him a large bundle of cash, and then snapped the photo (above) ... which went out to Game's 1.1 million Twitter followers.
Ikwuakor admits he consented to the pic, and appreciated Game's Twitter shout out -- but says the actual tip was only $250.
Not that he's complaining ... in fact, Ikwuakor says Game and his fam were great customers and the $250 was "very generous and much appreciated."
He's assuming the $6k was just a practical joke ... though we doubt the IRS would be laughing.
We called Game to clear things up ... but, so far, radio silence.

Iconic Hollywood Hotspot Sued Over Alleged Rapes
Two women have filed a lawsuit, claiming they were drugged and raped by employees of one of the hottest restaurant/bars in Hollywood -- The Abbey.
The club has been a fixture in West Hollywood for more than 15 years. According to the lawsuit ... a gay woman who says she had never had sexual relations with a man was at The Abbey with her girlfriend in November, 2011. She says she and her GF had a fight, which upset the alleged victim. She ordered a drink at the bar and claims it was laced with a date rape drug.
The woman then claims she became impaired and a busboy allegedly took her outside and raped her.
Another woman -- who is straight -- claims she went to The Abbey in April, 2011, and was served a drink that was also allegedly laced with a date rape drug. She alleges an undocumented worker at The Abbey then took her across the street to his car and raped her.
The women claim owners of The Abbey either knew or should have known that employees were allegedly slipping patrons drugs and then sexually assaulting them.
In the lawsuit -- filed by Beverly Hills lawyer Robert Hirsh -- each woman is asking for more than $10 million.
The owners of The Abbey had no comment about the lawsuit.

Iowans to Matthew Perry Field of Dreams Threatens Crop Dusting
A bunch of farmers want to crush Matthew Perry's "Field of Dreams" -- as in the famous baseball diamond -- because they think it will end their dreams ... of crop dusting.
Just last month, the former "Friends" star joined an investment group (Go the Distance Baseball, LLC) that is planning to build a national youth baseball and softball tournament and training campus on land next to the field made famous by Kevin Costner's movie.
But locals are crying foul -- the Residential & Agricultural Advisory Committee thinks the project will prevent farmers from hauling manure ... and make it next to impossible to move farming vehicles and complete aerial spraying ... aka crop dusting.
They also think increased traffic will cause noise pollution in the area.
Now the group has fired off a letter to Perry claiming, "It is no exaggeration to say that our very way of life is at risk."
No word on whether Perry has actually seen the letter.

The grocery run pic was snapped earlier this month -- and 41-year-old Corin Nemec tells TMZ, getting back into his old swing of things is really tough, especially in a wheelchair ... which he'll be stuck in for at least four more months.
And to add insult to injury, Nemec tells us, he's already had his first embarrassing moment -- after his motorized cart stalled out at the supermarket ... and he was stuck in the aisle, yelling for help.
As we reported, Nemec nearly died in the January accident in Belize, while filming “Poseidon Rex." Nemec was riding on a Coast Guard vessel when it crashed into a barge ... breaking his femur in 3 places.
Nemec's making a solid recovery ... but says if he doesn't heal to his doc's satisfaction, he'll have to undergo bone grafting surgery.
Fun times.

Michael Crabtree I'm the 'Future of the NFL'
Michael Crabtree's ego has fully recovered from that huge blown call that cost him the Super Bowl -- because he now boldly predicts ... he is the FUTURE OF THE NFL!
The funniest part is ... we weren't even talking about him when he said it.
Here's the scene: the San Francisco 49ers wide receiver was leaving BOA Steakhouse with Dallas Cowboys stud receiver Dez Bryant last night -- and we asked the young stars about NFL rule changes intended to protect players from head injuries.
Neither guy replied ... so we moved on to another topic.

Crabtree's answer is ... "You ever seen the future of the NFL? The 2 hottest receivers in the game?"
So, what is the question?
Hint: it has NOTHING to do with Crabtree's or Bryant's talents ... but it IS a hot topic in the NFL.

Sarah Palin Sucks Out of a Straw
Sarah Palin attempted to mock the proposed ban on large sodas in New York City by sipping on a Big Gulp during her speech at the Conservative Political Action Conference yesterday.
For those of you outside of the Big Apple, Mayor Bloomberg is trying to implement a ban on soda cups bigger than 16 ounces ... in the interest of health.
The former VP hopeful took a dig at Bloomberg when she brought the large cup on stage and said, "Bloomberg’s not around. Our Big Gulp’s safe."
Seems no one told Palin that the 7-Eleven Big Gulp is NOT part of the proposed ban.
Maybe if she read a magazine or newspaper ...
