Brooklyn's Nathan's on Coney Island is having it's annual hot dog eating contest.

For the 10th time, Joey "The Jaw" Chestnut wins, with a record breaking 72 hot dogs in 10 minutes.

Does the Japanese guy still compete? I think his name was Kobayashi.

This sounds totally ridiculous.

He still eats competitively but not at Nathans because to do so requires an exclusive contract with the sanctioning body, MLE (Major League Eating).

What planet is this?

Rusty you nailed it after beer, cubed deer meat, fried potatoes and onions, and macaroni salad, with corn on the cob. The antacids came in handy tonight. Yep going to bed now....lol

So apparently it's the last name of the Japanese hot dog eating guy but what I was referring to was The Usual Suspects!

Does anybody but me find the idea of a guy cramming down 72 hotdogs in ten minutes grotesque if not obscene?

Guess I'm just weird, but I would have to rank that among the really, really dubious claims to fame I would never mention on a job interview.

I watched Adam Richmond eat 16 dozen oysters.

Of course, there wasn't a lot of chewing involved.

Yup, I looked it up. One Nathan's hot dog has 370 calories. That means that he ate 26,640 calories in 10 minutes.
I don't eat that many calories in 2 weeks.

Yeah but it's temporary unlike Taco Bell.

33 yo and worth 800G's? Not too shabby.

We watch this on ESPN every year. It's a holiday tradition.. The Great Joey Chesnut is fun to watch, but the host George Shea is a verbal master of poetry and hyperbole as he introduces the contestants..
