Hot dog eating contests honestly sounds awful. Even disregarding the vomitous feeling that the idea of stuffing my entire stomach with hot dogs is... they don't even have condiments. So they're not even good hot dogs.

Technically that's the opposite of vomitous.

I thought they banned TK because he wouldn't sign a contract with them, or maybe he was competing in other leagues. This seems totally different. It's nice that somebody else will finally win, but he was basically the only reason so many people watched. Nobody else was even remotely close in any competition I remember. I imagine most people won't catch this news until day of but I wonder what the viewership numbers will be by comparison.

How was a 1 day event that nobody really cares about pulling in enough money that it was worth it to give him 200k in the first place? Was he doing other promotional stuff for them? That 200k was way more than the total prize money for all the people that placed in both the mens and womens competitions.

They are in all the Wal-marts and local chains in my area of the Midwest. Obviously that dont mean they are everywhere but Wal-mart shows them online and I have always seen them in any Wal-mart Ive been.

Seems pretty reasonable when chewing a specific way has made him a millionaire.

It would not make any sense to sacrifice that for vanity.

Theres an hour and a half documentary about him, Kobayashi, and the contest along with some other things. It ended up being mildly enjoyable and the biggest douche in the whole thing was the announcer for the hot dog contest. He can fuck off forever.

Nathans AND Hebrew National are the best as far as what you can find in chain groceries (and Costco in the case of Hebrew National).

Otherwise I'm sure some random dude on the corner in NY could give you a better wiener than anyone else though.

I guess signing with Impossible pretty much guaranteed this outcome. That $1.2M will spend nicely though. Heard Chestnut has some health issues that jeopardize his future in competitive eating anyway.

As far as hotdog brands go, I prefer Farmer John.
