Hotdog Eating Contest
ESPN just aired the 2006 Hotdog Eating Contest hosted by Nathan’s on July 4th of this year. Takeru Kobiyashi of Japan ate a record 53 3/4 hotdogs (including buns) in 12 minutes. Watching the contestants eat was pretty gross. I figured, if one hotdog was at least 200 calories each, Kobiyashi ate about 10,000 to 11,000 calories in just 12 minutes. That’s 5 times the daily allowance. What do these guys do afterwards, go in hibernation? Amazing or stupid? I’m still shaking my head. Here’s more info about the Hotdog Eating Contest from Wikipedia.
