Someone beat Kobayashi!

Posted in Observations on June 4th, 2007

Joey “Jaws” Chestnut just beat Kobayshi’s record of 53.5 hot dogs by downing 59.5 hot dogs in 12 minutes! I was so close to getting to 53.5 . . . now I have to train even harder!

How many hot dogs can you eat in 12 minutes? Who would be down for a online hot dog eating contest for the Official Bloggers Hot Dog Eating Championships where you’ll record yourself live or we’ll skype it and broadcast it? I just thought of that, but if there’s interest . . . . we’ll do it on July 4th, just like the “offline” championship!

No! Kobayashi is Japan’s national hero! They’ll be devastated if he doesn’t take back the world record! Go Takeru!
