Those stray, spittle-flecked crumbs of bun plastered around Joey Chestnut’s dog-hole? Those are the crumbs of freedom, baby. Exit quotation: “Hot dogs are extremely unhealthy, especially when eaten at high volume.” Click the image to exult.

USA! USA! (flashes headlights and honks horn)
Wineaholic on July 4, 2008 at 5:17 PM
Well, dude…. Turn down the music, then.
Attila (Pillage Idiot) on July 4, 2008 at 5:26 PM
Team America F### yeah!
Wethal on July 4, 2008 at 5:26 PM
This would not be considered patriotic in Denver…
Wethal on July 4, 2008 at 5:28 PM
They used the cannonball technique?
I imagine that may come in handy tomorrow morning.
(sorry)
SteveMG on July 4, 2008 at 5:29 PM
If only there was some government regulation to save these men from themselves.
It's Vintage, Duh on July 4, 2008 at 5:29 PM
Whew! That was too close for comfort…the thought of the “yellow belt” going back to Japan on the 4th of July would have too much to bear.
AUINSC on July 4, 2008 at 5:33 PM
Making America proud, one hot dog at a time. Kudos Mr. Chestnut. Kudos.
madne0 on July 4, 2008 at 5:35 PM
Randy Jackson was quoted after the spectacle “Yo’ dog. Check it out dog. That was the bomb dog.”
Beto Ochoa on July 4, 2008 at 5:35 PM
Shhh! Don’t give Bloomberg any more ideas
JetBoy on July 4, 2008 at 5:37 PM
The olympic swimmers and sprinters catch their breath during the interviews, these guys burp in your face (the Japanese also picked his nose). Keep the good work ESPN!
Ropera on July 4, 2008 at 5:38 PM
It sound too exciting to ruin it by watching the video. :)
abinitioadinfinitum on July 4, 2008 at 5:41 PM
Exactly…I was even more shocked to learn that New York is the only place where the ‘cannon ball technique’, employed by Kobayashi, is still legal…I’m writing a letter to Mayor Nanny about this…what’s next for NY, the Marlboro Smoke-Off?
AUINSC on July 4, 2008 at 5:45 PM
Hey Joey! Kudos! Cheers! Pat on the back! Tums are in the cabinet.
If you are hungry later I’ve got the fajitas meat marinating, the jalapeno’s picked and ready to pop, and enough beer to make the hometown fireworks display a thing of wonderment. Come on by!
Limerick on July 4, 2008 at 5:45 PM
I don’t know about that…I’d imagine the first thing he’d say when he arrives at your house is..”hey man, thanks for inviting me…could you tell me where your bathroom is?”
AUINSC on July 4, 2008 at 5:53 PM
UG, That just brought back a bad memory of a childhood punishment. only it was Pall Mall unfiltered
abinitioadinfinitum on July 4, 2008 at 5:53 PM
He has been nicknamed ‘The Frisco Kid’. No idea why.
Kevin M on July 4, 2008 at 6:15 PM
Congrats Joey on winning a 5 hot dog Dog-Off.
on top of 59 already down the chute
64 dogs. damn.
normsrevenge on July 4, 2008 at 6:17 PM
I’d like to see-em do it with pizza. .
Jalapeno Pizza. :-)
Texyank on July 4, 2008 at 6:17 PM
I hope none of the contestants are in the news tomorrow! Question, did he have the hot, spicy Coney Island chili sauce on the dogs? That chili is huge here at the “dog shops”.
Zorro on July 4, 2008 at 6:29 PM
You tell them Joey!
You will remove this hot dog from my cold dead hands!!!
RMR on July 4, 2008 at 6:29 PM
Chestnut’s a machine. Among his other “records” is 103 Krystal burgers in 8 minutes (about one every five seconds).
Big S on July 4, 2008 at 6:30 PM
Chestnut is a GREAT AMERICAN for defending/reaffirming our National integrity and strength. The great thing about this whole thing is the Japanese kid can’t even speaks english. Highlarious…
DfDeportation on July 4, 2008 at 6:48 PM
See, this is exactly why I’m glad you agreed to co-blog at doubleplusundead.
Oh, and America, F*ck Yeah!
doubleplusundead on July 4, 2008 at 7:08 PM
Wow! Did you see what Kobayashi pulled out of his nose!
Dog-off competition by Americans will soon be outlawed as offensive expression of decadent American exceptionalism.
petefrt on July 4, 2008 at 7:08 PM
“Not to mention all the starving in Africa, and elsewhere. We hate America and Bushhitler”.
Entelechy on July 4, 2008 at 7:16 PM
I was at the contest in Coney Island today (watching). Not the healthiest thing in the world but man do they taste good!
Hilts on July 4, 2008 at 7:35 PM
Cannonball NO JUTSU!
>:D
Chakra Hammer on July 4, 2008 at 8:21 PM
Repulsive is the right word.
Paul-Cincy on July 4, 2008 at 9:06 PM
repulsive
Maxx on July 5, 2008 at 12:06 AM
I heaved by just watching, thank God I had a cold brewski to settle my stomach. Way to go USA!
gzelmiami on July 5, 2008 at 12:23 AM
Oh no, I had to vomitate again. I saw the O Messiah on TV saying how he supports our troops in the WAT. I guess thats why now he believes in the 2nd amendment
gzelmiami on July 5, 2008 at 12:34 AM
Hey, that’s not a yellow belt, it’s a Mustard Yellow belt. Don’t you forget it.
thirtypundit on July 5, 2008 at 2:10 AM
After eating all those hot dogs, why don’t they followup with a farting contest? Those guys are obviously loaded and ready.
radjah shelduck on July 5, 2008 at 6:07 AM
That video probably got Larry Sinclair verrrrry excited and reminded him of his night in the back of the limo with Obama.
Being from Chicago…unless it’s on a poppyseed bun with mustard, relish, onion, pickle slice, two tomato slices and sport peppers…it’s not a hot dog.
LtE126 on July 5, 2008 at 8:01 AM
…so look for the Liberals to outlaw posession of more than 12 dogs at a time and require “bun locks” on the bread boxes…
landlines on July 5, 2008 at 12:08 PM
I guess it’s a slow news day.
Christine on July 5, 2008 at 2:36 PM
It’s obviously a slow news day.
Christine on July 5, 2008 at 2:39 PM
