Last year everyone was talking about Matt Stonie's UNDEFEATED year, and beating Joey Chestnut in the July 4th Nathan's hot dogs, to end the 8-year winning streak.

But Chestnut got his revenge this year, and the big news has been the emergence of Carmen Cincotti.

Finally he got his first victory over 'Jaws', after 2nd places in pork rolls, poutine, pumpkin pie, and chili (and moon pies to Stonie) in the last month, in the very hotdog-like bratwurst event.

Edging him out 101 to 100 (new world record).

Everything about competitive eating just baffles me.

What % of the field is in it for free food?

Molly Schuyler has her own bratwurst event next weekend. Will she beat the "boys" record? Are bratwursts comparable across events?

No. Bierhaus is only 8 mins, MLE is 10 mins. Last year she had 50 (and 43 the year before), while Chestnut had 66 in Tulsa. No idea why they had so many this year, but many MLE events have been doing dodgy things to try to break records.

Stomach enlargement surgery is the key.

Molly Schuyler only ate 46 in Bierhaus (FTW).

Joke competition. Equivalent of two guys running miles in 3:59.7 and 4:00.1 with third place in 8:03.3.

They have intesinaal expansion surgery to enlarge eating capacity.
