The competitive eater is set to compete in this year’s Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest on the fourth of July.
He was banned from competing last year after a sponsorship dispute.
Joey Chestnut currently holds the world record at 76 hot dogs and buns eaten in 2021.
Chestnut said his goal is to eat 80 this year.
I’m thrilled to be returning to the Nathan’s Famous Fourth of July Hot Dog Eating Contest. This event means the world to me. It’s a cherished tradition, a celebration of American culture, and a huge part of my life. (1/3)
