People will bet on just about anything?

What were the odds for Joey putting someone in a headlock....and....still winning?

He’s a hotdog swallowing champion - so he’s qualified to be transportation secretary.

Misdeal, throw ‘em in.

Joey is pushing 40 now. May be time to consider other ways to be a celebrity besides force-feeding on cue.

However, putting some troublemaker in a headlock while you have a mouthful of hot and spicey weiners and sauerkraut is impressive.
He probably didn’t even lose his count of how many chews to do before the swallow.

I find the whole ‘eating contest’ thing revolting; but Chestnut did a very good job, to pound that protestor AND win the contest.

I might eat 4 or 5 hot dogs at a barbecue and I feel bloated for the rest of the day. I don't even put mustard or anything on the hot dogs either.

I can't imagine eating the 60-75 hot dogs in ten minutes that you need to do to compete in a hot dog eating contest.

Where do they all go? Do the contestants go backstage after the contest and regurgitate them? If not, what are their bowel movements like? Never mind, I don't want to know.
