Joey Chestnut couldn’t have competed in Nathan’s famous Annual 4th of July Hot Dog Eating Contest in Coney Island… but the competition was still memorable.
First, Miki Sudo made history along with her latest win at the annual contest … by setting a new world record in the women’s division. The Florida dental hygiene major claimed her 10th women’s title on Thursday, where she consumed 51 hot dogs in 10 minutes … 11 and a half more than last year’s competitors.
Miki broke her personal best, as she ate 48 and 1/2 hot dogs in a previous competition. Remember, 48 and 1/2 hot dogs was the women’s world record going into Thursday’s competition.
While Miki was the reigning champion, she was not essentially a favorite to win the Fourth of July custom. Among the many other 14 rivals was her rival, Mayoi Ebihara from Japan.
Mayoi — who was also the runner-up in 2023 — came in second place after consuming 37 hot dogs in 10 minutes.
All eyes then turned to the boys’ competitors… the place, with Joey’s departure In June, anyone can emerge victorious. Patrick Bertoletti of Illinois emerged victorious on Day 4… by eating 58 hot dogs, breaking his personal record of 55 hot dogs.
The race was good as Patrick was neck and neck with the Australian James Webb and last year’s runner-up Geoff Esper. Finally, Patrick claimed victory — and the $10,000 prize.
