‘Rotten Sneaker’ Champ

A Bristol, Connecticut, 11-year-old’s sweaty sneakers have been named the smelliest shoes in the country. Trinette Robinson was awarded $2,500 cash, an all-expenses-paid New York vacation, tickets to the Broadway musical “The Lion King,” and an array of Odor-Eaters products on Tuesday at the 35th annual National Odor-Eaters Rotten Sneaker contest in Montpelier, Vermont. Robinson bested eight other children between the ages of 6 and 16 with judging categories that included odor and overall condition of the shoes. The girl’s prize-winning sneakers will be enshrined in the Odor-Eaters “Hall of Fumes.”
