Joey Chestnut! Of California. Mr. Chestnut recently broke the world record held by Nippon phenom Takeru Kobayashi. Kobayashi dominated the IFOCE for years. He was the Lance Armstrong of his field. And yet before he could retire with his winning streak intact, this American upstart comes along and slaughters his record. Way to go Mr. Chestnut!
Stay tuned. Mr. Chestnut and Kobayashi will have a showdown on July 4th at Coney Island. It promises to be the battle of the 21st Century. Too bad Eric "Badlands" Booker has retired from the sport, or this could have been a banner year for the United States.
Congratulations, Mr. Chestnut. You have the stomach of a champion. Intense training and preparation clearly went into your success. Jaw strength and agility like yours come along once in a lifetime. I am sending some zen warrior waves your way. Go USA!
