Grassmarket 3,403 Posted June 11 #291 Share Posted June 11 (edited) The end of an era in Hot Dog eating. This is like Lionel Messi signing a contract to play nothing but indoor 5-a-Side. Joey Chestnut, the competitive eating legend, is banned for the annual Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Competition on July 4 due to a sponsorship conflict.

Grassmarket 3,403 Posted July 5 #297 Share Posted July 5 Congratulations to Patrick Bartoletti, but sadly in the eyes of most fans of Hot-Dog Eating, there will always be an asterisk against his name. Hopefully there can be some equivalent of the 1980 or 1984 Zurich Athletics Meets which pitted Olympic Champions against the best athletes from the boycotting nations. Patrick Bertoletti, of Chicago, managed to gobble down 58 hot dogs to win his first men's title at the annual Nathan's Famous Fourth of July hot dog eating contest.
