Hot Dog, Hot Dog, Hot Diggidy Dog!

Published on July 5, 2007 By foreverserenity In Misc

Joey Chestnut did it! He took back the belt for America!

Joey won the hot dog eating contest at Coney Island in Brooklyn, NY yesterday. That's the famous Nathan's Hot Dog eating contest held annually at Coney Island where the contestants compete by eating as many hot dogs as they can.

The winner of this contest has been a Japanese guy, a little guy too given he ate so much to win, named Takeru Kobayashi, for the past five years. It was going around the grapevine that Kobayashi would not compete this year because of problems with his jaw, that he couldn't get his mouth opened wide enough to no more than two fingers of food. He showed up and was able to eat 63 hot dogs with buns, while Joey ate 66!

Congrats Joey! Link

Thx. I read your blog and noted that. I don't know why that would happen. Is that just points or personal info too? If so Zoomba are you reading this?

I'll have to go over to where I can alert them.

Yeah, the eating itself is really gross ad Loca said but they amaze me!
