Location: Phoenix AZ | Chestnut qualified by winning the match here in Phoenix last month. He did 59, which at that tiome was a new world record. I didn't see it but it was all over the news.
How did the chick do? She's like 100 lbs. soaking wet and has knocked 50 dogs. She holds the cheesecake record of 11 lbs. in 2 minutes.

Maybe you should get a hobby.
Like guitar or something.
BTW... Michigan has the highest standards in the country for what can go into a hot dog.
Never... I mean never.. order a hot dog in Canada. |

I think it should be like baseball, where they have steroid baseball and non-steroid baseball games. Oh wait, they don't do that ... oh well. |

Never... I mean never.. order a hot dog in Canada. This is true. No lips or, uh, snaprings in Michigan hot dogs, by law. I will second the recommendation not to eat hot dogs in beautiful CA, and add that you shouldn't order one from that NASCAR restaurant in the Atlanta airport (Hartsfield-Jackson), either. :eek: |

I still can't imagine eating 66 hot dogs, let alone in 12 minutes. Is there a requirement for how long they have to stay down afterwards?
To look at me is to know that I know my way around the dinner table, but these guys are insane! |

Now.... about this hot dog eating contest. At the start I gave you guys a hard time about giving it any attention. I'll have to re-think that. This story is all over the news. Radio, TV, internet, newspaper.... I heard the guy interviewed on 2 different radio stations this morning.
Gentleman... I stand corrected.
And that'll be two with everything, please! |

Or, maybe not. |

I remember a few years back getting a hot dog from one of those sidewalk carts about 1 block from Radio City Music Hall. I got it with everything. It tasted great. I don't think I want to know a lot of the details that went into its preparation. Maalox please. |
