Alan Rosen (restaurant owner)

(

... that Alan Rosen once sold 2,400 cheesecakes in four minutes to television shoppers?

Source: February 19, 1997, New York Times article: "And last year, Junior's signed a contract with QVC, the television shopping network.... After winning a contest to appear on a showcase of New York State products, Alan Rosen stood before the grandeur of Niagara Falls in September and sold 2,400 cheesecakes... in four minutes to television shoppers wielding credit cards. He returned to the network a few weeks later and sold 7,100 in less than an hour."

Comment: Nominating this on behalf of an IP editor who has, as usual, provided the QPQ. I shall say that I see a rather viable hook in the gun buy-back scheme, too.
