Sponsor conflict keeping Joey Chestnut from hot dog eating contest
Joey Chestnut, the 16-time champion of the Nathan's Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest, will not compete in the annual Fourth of July event next month, Major League Eating announced Tuesday.
A spokesperson for Major League Eating (MLE) told ESPN that Chestnut had chosen to "represent another hot dog brand" and therefore would not be allowed to participate in the Nathan's contest, which is held annually at New York City's Coney Island.
I have found the video proof. And I lied it was only 6 hotdogs and not 6.5. I might have to try again this July 4th. Thoughts? pic.twitter.com/o5L55Ptucy

He was banned from the contest by George shea and then showed up in protest in a “free kobi” shirt. Shea had him arrested because he’s a huge piece of shit. The kind of piece of shit that destroys kobiyashi by painting him as an anti American villain to juice up his ratings. He’s a hell of a showman but I wouldn’t be sad if this sunk him. Knowing shea, it wouldn’t surprise me if this was part of a publicity stunt [Reply]

More death associated with fake.meat than sustainably grown meat, and.more land fucked up.
Are you dumb enough to think this made-up narrative is true or have years of mediocre Florida football compromised your ability to think critically?
Do you typically take your science lessons from Ted Nugent? Really? [Reply]
