Joey Chestnut, the 16-time Nathan's champ, aims to pull off a remarkable feat from afar
Joey Chestnut will be competing on the Fourth of July with Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest in mind despite his ban from the event he's dominated.
I admit sport in general tends to baffle me, but the appeal of watching people eat hot dog after hot dog really eludes me.
