It has finally happened, America has once again taken the Mustard Yellow Belt from the Nathan’s hot dog eating contest. Joey Chestnut ate 66 hot dogs in 12 minutes beating the six-time consecutive champ, Takeru Kobayashi by three hot dogs. I watch the Nathan contest just to seee Kobayahi in action, this was sad news to me for I am a Kobayashi fan. I believe its great that some non-fat person would be able to do that and still keep in shape like Kobayashi. Over the past couple of years Joey has entered the contest and lost to Kobayashi but really came close to beating him, every time getting closer and closer until he finally beat Kobayashi. To be fair, Joey isn’t some fat dude and might have a build similar to Kobayashi which led to his victory. My hopes go out to Kobayashi’s victory in the 2008 contest. Maybe this girl should enter, I believe she has a good chance of taking the belt back to Japan. Info taken from Mainichi News.
