Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest is finally here
Coney Island eagerly awaits its most famous annual event, Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest.
This Fourth of July, which is Wednesday, fans worldwide will once again tune into ESPN or make their way down to the famous boardwalk to see the gluttonous spectacle.
To participate in the contest, frankfurter gobblers must first qualify in regional tests to reach the final stage. Contestants have 10 minutes exactly to see how many dogs they can stuff their face with and win the coveted “Mustard Belt.”
