Hot Dogs

 

Televised by ESPN, the annual Nathan's hot dog eating contest was won once again by Joey Chestnut, 35, of San Jose, Calif. This was his 12th title consuming an unbelievable 71 hot dogs in 10 minutes, defeating 17 opponents. He finished 21 hot dogs ahead of Darron Breeden, who at only 50.

 

Miki Sudo, 34, of Las Vegas, won her sixth title in a row in the women's competition, consuming 31 dogs. Last year she ate 37.

 

Quite an accomplishment...don't you think?

I wonder what other sports should be televised...

I wonder why he ate less than last year too?

i grew up in Coney island and remember when a hot dog was 5 cents, French fries were 5 cents for a small and 10cents for a large. A drink was 3 cents.

We've been in the west for the past few July 4th holidays. It amazed me how people in California and Arizona were into it also. We had no problem finding it on tv in either place with quite a crowd watching.
