Eating Contest are the begging of a S**ting contest

It has been one year since the last Nathan's hot dog eating contest held at Coney Island and all eyes where glued on Japan's mighty Takeru Kobayashi and last year's winner Joey Chestnut who hails from California.



I thought Kobayashi would have won this year because i mean come on, it's Kobayashi the Tsunami. Kobayashi tied with Chestnut with 59 hotdogs in 10 minutes(it was 12 minutes last year). Then they had to face off in overtime, with who can eat 5 hotdogs the fastest. To me i think that was not settled correctly. They should of had it who can eat the most hotdogs in 5 minutes.



Kobaashi is still the man to me, but he looks skinner then he did in the past events. In this video just look at him destroy all the food the chef puts in front of him.....I wish i could do that...wait... scratch that i don't want to see the consequence of what eating all that food can do to you.

Kobayashi isn't losing his touch in the competitive eating circuit. There's finally an American who can eat just as much hot dogs as much as he can. Until next year's competition we'll just have to wait and see if Kobayashi can retain his title and beat Chestnut....My vote goes for the small Japanese guy=)
