Joey Chestnut is unstoppable, even when he's not in the Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest.
We were robbed of what could have been a masterful performance on July 4th.
Patrick Bertoletti took the Nathan’s Hot Dog Contest crown from Joey Chestnut on Thursday after Chestnut had to bow out due to his partnership with Impossible Foods. Bertoletti ate 57 hot dogs in the allotted 10 minutes, which is pretty impressive.
But perhaps Chestnut knew he had to make a statement. So at Fort Bliss in Texas later that day, Chestnut did a five-minute contest and ate … 57 hot dogs.
That’s pretty wild and means we could have seen him perhaps deliver another incredible record-setting day in Coney Island.
Watch:
Joey Chestnut: 57 hot dogs in five minutes
Patrick Bertoletti: 58 hot dogs in 10 minutes
