I've eaten way too many crabs in my lifetime as well.
and I cant go to crabfeasts anymore. They're very odd. It seems to me to be one of the few remaining social activities in which man is at his most primal. Take a big hall full of tables, cover them all in the cheapest brown paper tablecloth available. dump big piles of crabs everywhere. Pass around hammers so that the shells can be crushed, and everyone just starts ripping apart the things and discarding the waste wherever theres room. Shells pile up to the ceiling and the crabs just keep coming. Its a battle too, the sharp shards pierce the skin, and the old bay seasoning burns in the wounds. But its a worthwhile pain! And of course theres nothing really filling about crab meat when eaten like that. So the only way you can stop is by getting too drunk to care anymore, or just becoming too exhausted to pry open any more shells.
