Yes. I'm watching it on tv right now. I can't help BUT watch it. The infamous Nathan's International Hot Dog Eating Contest!!!!
12 minutes is all they've got. How many of those Nathan's hotdogs can they consume?
Earlier in the year, I saw some special they did on the 5 time winner. He actually "trains" his stomach. He's not a big guy either. He's actually a buff young dude. They showed him working out. They showed him visiting a restaurant in his town. And the chef made him heaping bowls of food. I mean these things were like 5 or 6 pounds of one dish. Amazing.
Right now for me it's not even 10am yet on July 4th.
The kidlings are playing upstairs in their area.
The Hubs is watching "Brighton Beach Memoirs" in the other room.
And they BEGIN!
Kobayashi has bright orange hair this year. Last year ist was yellow. He dyes it when he competes at Nathan's it seems.
WOW! There's an American guy who is totally keeping up with the Japanese champ! Where did this new guy come from? He is AHEAD of Kobayashi!
Oh my goodness! They're at 44 each!
What's amazing is the gal who's in the contest is in 3rd place with 30 dogs.
What's interesting is that only ONE of the contestants is a big person. The rest are normal size.
Can either one of them beat the current record of 53 in 12 minutes?
54!!!! FIFTY-FOUR! Can you believe that people? The Japanese guy won. The American guy? He got 52!
I can just imagine next year. It's going to be an amazing contest!
