Joey was injured plus he recently had COVID. He won but not up to his standards. Still 63 is a remarkable achievement. What a great athlete!

Better to read about it than to watch it. It's a disgusting thing to watch.

True that. I like hot dogs, but I probably don't eat 80 hot dogs in 2 years. That's effing crazy. Even 63.

Worst non sporting event advertised as a sporting event....this display of gluttony typifies what the rest of the world thinks abut the US.

>>>>>> Well, yeah, on one level that's all true ...... but it's still awesome! The first time I saw Kobayashi win this 'made for TV event' it was dumbfounding. In 2006, he ate like low 53 and won. Joey Chesnut took it to a whole new level of debauchery. As ugly as it is, it's still quintessential America -- hot dogs on the 4th of July!!
