Default July 4th hot dog eating contest.
Maybe my favorite part of the long weekend in the States after time off work is the Coney Island Nathans dog eating contest.

The Japanese guy isnt here this year, so Joey Chestnut will win in a walk, but its simply unreal how these guys do it.

Odds....

Badlands Booker +5000
Bob Coccodrili +10000
Bob Shoudt +2000
Crazy Legs Conti +7000
Erik Denmark +2500
Franco Camerini +10000
Gravy Brown +5000
Hall Hunt +2000
Jim Reeves +7000
Joey Chestnut -1000
Juliet Lee +5000
Marco Marquez +10000
Micah Collins +10000
Patrick Bertoletti +700
Pete Davekos +700
Rich LeFevre +7000
Sean Gordon +7000
Sonya Thomas +2000
Tim Eater X Janus +800

I'm just gonna bump this old thread as we don't need a new one for this eating event. Joey Chestnut won the hot dog eating contest again this year. However the real highlight was the announcer:
Analyst and Major League Eating President Rich Shea - "Look at that gnawing motion of Eater X, it's a bite that only Gary Bettman could love. Alex Burrows take note my friend."
Awesome!

Kobiyashi put down 69 in his own independent contest. Chestnut is a paper champion.

Hmm...is it just me or does something seem wrong about 69 in a sausage eating contest?

watching these people eat was both disgusting and hypnotic.
