I’ll let the video do the talking for this story……absolutely crazy! Here are a few bullet points about this year’s Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest.
- JOEY "Jaws" CHESTNUT won Sunday's 95th annual Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest --his fourth consecutive triumph.
- Chestnut downed a whopping 54 hot dogs in 10 minutes, still several dogs shy of the record-breaking 68 that he consumed last year.
- He made $10-grand for winning
- TAKERU "The Tsunami" KOBAYASHI bum-rushed the stage and was arrested. Kobayashi didn't compete this year after refusing to sign a contract with an organization called Major League Eating (yes, that exists --formerly called the International Federation of Competetive Eating)
- Chestnut earns a cool $150,000 a year from eating contests.
