On Thursday, the annual Nathan’s hot dog eating contest saw two new world records set. Miki Sudo from Florida consumed 51 hot dogs in 10 minutes, marking her 10th total win. Meanwhile, Patrick Bertoletti secured the men’s title by finishing 58 hot dogs and buns in a 10-minute span.
While Joey Chestnut was not present at the event, he did not miss out on the competition entirely. Instead of competing in the hot dog eating contest, Chestnut secured a Netflix special that will feature a one-on-one match with his longtime rival Takeru Kobayashi. The special, titled Chestnut vs. Kobayashi: Unfinished Beef, will stream live on Labor Day, marking the first time in 15 years that the two competitors will face off.
In addition to these impressive feats, Eric Badland set a new record by chugging an entire gallon of lemonade in just 21 seconds. The crowd cheered as he celebrated his victory and added another impressive feat to the day’s events.
