Wow, says he would make 160 crab cakes! Too bad we don't have those in the Bay.

Glad someone saved it. Why would anyone want to eat such an old crab? Beside, the meat probably have no taste and super chewy (similar to lobster that weight 10+ lbs).

Says they are keeping him in a tank which is a 6 ft wide cylinder - seems way too small for a crab that size.
