2021
Let’s be frank, nobody was going to deny Joey Chestnut his 14th Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest title. No competitor could catch up to Chestnut, who set a new world record by eating 76 hot dogs and buns in 10 minutes at the annual July 4 event on Coney Island. Michelle Lesco relished the chance for her first Women’s Hot Dog Eating Contest title, eating 30 3/4 dogs.
Chestnut’s win was no surprise, as he was considered a -2400 favorite by William Hill Sportsbook entering Sunday. The 37-year-old American — whose previous record was 75 in 2020 — has won every Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest except one since he took the Mustard Belt from Takeru Kobayashi in 2007. Matt Stonie beat Chestnut in 2015.
