Wisconsin Teen Wins National Texting Championship [VIDEO]

Texting can actually pay off really big if you're the best around!  Wisconsin native Austin Wiershke is walking away with $50,000 after winning the 2011 LG National Texting Championship in New York City.  How quickly can he text?

Wiershke was one of ten finalists to compete for the title.  In the end it came down to him and last year's champ Brianna Hendrickson, but according to PhoneArnea.com Wiershke emerged the clear winner.
