NFT: Just met Joey Chestnut

bluesince56 : 10/13/2015 3:29 pm

Really nice guy. I was at Coney Island at Nathan's and he came out to eat at the outdoor seating area. After he ate I went over to say hello. Very friendly, spoke for a while and took my picture with him. I'm visiting from South Fla so it was kind of cool to meet him.

Any jewelz

Headhunter : 10/13/2015 3:31 pm : link

I talked with him for about 15 minutes a couple weeks ago

At the Pork Roll eating championship in Trenton. Super down to earth and genuinely was interested in talking to fans. He took several pictures with my kids and stayed until everyone left. Class act.

Not to be a dick,

but I'll be a dick - you're excited to meet a guy who eats hot dogs? To each his own, I guess.

So he just hangs out at Nathan's in Coney Islands?

Was he practicing? Or does Nathan's just give him free hot dogs for life.

Also how do you recognize someone like that?

This whole post is pretty weird.

but he eats them with BUNS!

They made competitive eating into a sport.

When I was a kid we had a bunch of those guys in the neighborhood who would do nothing but eat tons of food all day long.
We would call them Good Fellas.

So you're telling me he puts his weiner between buns? Does Playboy know about this?

Better than that; he prefers ketchup on his dogs.

Wait...are we talking about Brett now?

Ketchup on hot dogs?

They should put asterisks****** next to his record, worse than steroids in baseball

I've seen him on TV

mrvax : 10/13/2015 4:49 pm : link

several times and I'm sure I recognize him. He can eat like there's no tomorrow. I saw him put away a huge burrito in 3 minutes that was so large, it would have literally taken me a week to eat.

Look i moved to South Fla from Brooklyn 26 years ago. Other than the Giants and Rangers and a wife who also thinks I'm nuts to have recognized him what else do I have? (LOL)

Pretty cool bro!!!

Joey Chestnut is an American hero.

That's odd

a hot dog chain is the last place I'd ever expect to see Joey Chestnut.
