NFT: Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest

Joey Chestnut is a true American hero.

With my co worker for lunch. Go Joey but don’t do 76.75

Theh seemed to just start throwing numbers around to get everybody excited. I think you are safe with 76.5.

That’s not nearly enough for what he’s put his body through.

I’m still waiting for the day his stomach just ruptures from idiotically putting so much food in it.

From the movie Meatballs

Yeah they added a bunch after he was finished, said the counter "miscounted". You have 1 job, count the hotdogs! They really made a mockery of this sport.

I have Lardass from Stand By Me.

Hotdogs for lunch and watch Joey Chestnuts. Nobody will come close.

tough in this heat!

He has God's username and password and does with it as he pleases.

after eating 71 dogs.

The 30 for 30, chestnut comes off as an asshole. The abuse Kobayashi took was sad.

And can't think of anyone even close. Brady, Jordan, Ali, nope. Never won a championship 12 years in a row. Michael Phelps maybe.

In terms of consecutive victories in any individual sport, Edwin Moses the hurdler and Dan Gable the freestyle wrestler come to mind for crazy long term strings of winning every single match or race they participated in.

In terms of supreme championships that don't require and/or even preclude the winning of individual "matches" or "stages" as part of the strategy to win the war while choosing your battles, Lance Armstrong's record in the Tour de France stands above all others, doping issues or not, IMO.

Just defeating the odds of something going wrong during a month long race for seven straight years that covers however many ridiculous miles (ca. 3,500 KM), climbs and descents, or getting a flu that knocks you on your ass for a few days, or whatever, winning the Tour de France that many times consecutively (seven) is beyond crazy.
