Hot dog anyone?
American hot dog eating record set
hxxp://sports.espn.go.com/espn/news/story?id=2450250 "... The Fourth of July has been stolen from Americans because of Kobayashi's dominance and now America has someone who they can get excited about." I know I'm excited. This is about America. Dammit. |

Further great quotes from the article:
"This could be so critical to our sport," said George Shea, chair of the International Federation of Competitive Eating, which sanctions more than 100 eating contests, including the Nathan's event. "I'm going to push harder on our Independence Day to take the title back," said Chestnut, who is 6-foot-1 and 230 pounds. "My brother is in the National Guard in Iraq and there will be a lot of people behind me." Nothing says being a true, American patriot like eating 50 hotdogs in 12 minutes, 5.5 pounds of pork ribs in 12 minutes, 18.5 waffles in 10 minutes, 118 jalapeno poppers in 10 minutes, or 173 buffalo wings in 30 minutes. I love this God Dammed country! *Cue the Star Spangled Banner as a cheer rolls down the cheek. Then finish it off with a rousing rendition of that "I'm proud to be an American, where at least I know I'm free!" song.*

I just enjoyed how Foo used "hxxp" but then still gave us a live link to the story.

FYI - don't eat the hot dogs at the American Airlines terminal in Love Field. Got the foot poisoning from them. And from talking to other folks, looks like about 5 other people I know got the food poisoning too from the same hot dog hut. Just a fair warning to any of ya'll who come down to Dallas...

I think we should boycott hotdos all together until an American has the title. It's decidedly un-American to be eating them now. As for all of you non-Americans. . . QUIT READING THIS STINKIN' THREAD AND GO CHOKE ON A HOTDOG, YOU DAMNED PINKOS!

Some guy who wrote a book about competitive eating was on the Colbert Report about a month or so ago. That was a damn funny interview.
