Joey Chestnut wins the 2007 Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest

Tps222 · 07-4-2007, 12:11 PM

With a new world record of 66 hot dogs, Joey Chestnut ends Takeru Kobayashi's 6 year reign (who posted an impressive 63 'dogs with an injured jaw). Chestnut ate almost 5 hot dogs a minute on average.

USA, USA.

1 hot dog per 12 seconds. Impressive.

That might have been a bit over the top.

I was trying to get this buddy of mine at work to eat a whole 10 piece chicken family meal. He ate the gravy, 8 pieces of chicken and half of the fries... guess we will have to get him to do it again next week.

DAMNIT! I really like to watch these things, too bad I missed it. Anyways, pretty crazy achievement. I'd like to see where we are in a few years.

Side note, one of my really good friends (my roommate) is seriously thinking about becoming a competition eater or whatever they're called. Last fall, he ate a whole Qdoba burrito in 37 seconds to win an eating competition. pretty impressive in my opinion.

He'll get it back next year. Kobayashi is a machine.

If Koba an eat 63 with an injured jaw then who knows how much he can eat when his jaw gets better.

A few weeks ago I read that he got jaw arthritis. I thought it was the saddest thing in the world.
