NEW YORK - This year’s Nathan’s Famous hot-dog eating contest proved a mild disappointment to Joey Chestnut, the Fourth of July event’s perennial champ, even though he handily won the annual display of gastronomical excess for the 12th time this year.
“I came out fast and then I slowed down faster than I would have liked,” Chestnut said after the contest. “I tried to adjust, I tried to chew more, make it easier for my throat to swallow, but I was just slowing down.” Chestnut told ESPN he had eaten 75 dogs in practice, but could not repeat the performance for this year’s July 4th competition.
The favorite on the women’s side, Miki Sudo from Tucson, Arizona, also came out on top on Thursday, claiming her 6th Nathan’s title with 31 hot dogs.
