Hot Dog Eating Contest

Nothing more needs to be said. The gluttony begins at noon on ESPN.

We may try and stage our own hot dog contest at Arjun's or something.; July 3, 2009 at 9:37 PM
RM said...: Hot Dog Contest was amazing. Joey Chestnut owned Kobayashi, but there were some other challengers hitting numbers I've never seen from 3rd and 4th place. Truly a great time for American eating. The best part of the challenge is the announcers.

New WR (for the new-ish 10 minute time): 68 hot dogs. Might have been 67.5. Can't remember. Still that's an absurd amount.; July 4, 2009 at 3:54 PM
