Nathan's Hot Dog eating contest at Coney Island in Brooklyn, NY. Won in a 5 dog eat-off after they tied at 59 dogs in 10 minutes. 64 hot dogs in 12 or 13 minutes. Joey Chestnutt
and they taste best at a baseball game. Nothing like a dog, a Pepsi and a baseball game.....its allllllllll good
Watched the contest on TV. The look on Chesnutt's face, I was wondering if he was going to blow his all over. I don't know how they can hold all that down, two dogs and i'm done.
Yeah its crazy how they do that. I could drop quite a few dogs alone, but with the buns? Crazy. Still, grats to Joey C, the mans a national icon, keep that trophy in the US baby!! Next up, Olympics
But hes lost to Joey twice in a row now, Joeys da man!!! Kobayashi is a legend in the sport, but his time might be passed.
And should have won last year, there was some really dodgy officiating that allowed chestnut to win. I should know, I was there.
They changed the time to 10 minutes this year...so past year #s and records are skewed. 59 in 10 minutes...5.9 a minute is fast, and actually what they have been averaging (pace wise) in past years when the total time was longer.
