Since 2005, he’s been a fixture at the Nathan’s Famous International Hot Dog Eating Contest on Coney Island in Brooklyn, racking up championships and revolutionizing competitive eating in the process. (He’s won the event 16 times, including the past eight years in a row, and owns the world record of 76 hot dogs and buns in 10 minutes.)
But this summer brought a seismic shift for the contest. Major League Eating announced in the New York Post that Chestnut would not be able to eat at Coney Island this year because of his partnership with Impossible Foods, which sells plant-based hot dogs, therefore qualifying it as a competitor of Nathan’s. The reigning champion was effectively banned from the contest…

Go away, Joey. Stop your bellyaching. No one is guaranteed to be the top champ for the rest of his life. That’s not how any of this works.
“Joey Chestnut Opens Up About Fourth of July Hot Dog Contest Ban”
It makes sense to ban it, since Pride Month ended last Sunday.
I remember when SI reported on sports.

LOL! and “Hot Dog Contest”
That’s actually a legit reason for a ban. Did he consider consulting with them first before taking a payday from another “hot dog” company?

Agree with the ban.
Hey Joey, go eat some wieners and shut up.

I asked her; then why do want to pretend you are eating animals?
She got pissy with that question and would not answer.

And real girls.
He’s probably not chewing them at all. It would be impossible for him to get those kinds of times if he did. So just gobbling them up as fast as he can so it’s a double-whammy. I’ve read that kind of binge eating can cause a heart attack.
Go sit on a hotdog Joe.
Joey got greedy and the stupid has taken over him.
Sorry Joey, you ain’t invited.
I like your comment because it made me laugh this morning.
I pictured that gal in my mind.
Hey, I see what you did there...
