On Monday, we are getting the biggest sporting event of the year. If not the decade. Joey Chestnut and Takeru Kobayashi are going to battle it out for the first time in 15 years.
The two competitive eaters are going to see who can eat the most hot dogs in 10 minutes and finally determine who is the Hot Dog of the hot dogs.
Unlike the Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest which takes place on July 4th, there will be rules.
They are:
RULE #1: 10 mins contest to eat the most Hot Dogs & Buns
RULE #2: NO Dunking or Pouring Water on Hot Dogs & Buns
RULE #3: NO Separation of Hot Dogs from Buns
RULE #4: Penalties may be issued for breaking of rules, or regurgitation
RULE #5: 30 Seconds to Finish what’s in their mouths at end of 10 minutes
RULE #6: Excess crumbs are weighed and deducted from scores if necessary
RULE #7: Tie Breaker — 3 minute overtime. Should a second overtime be necessary, winner will be first to finish 5 Hot Dogs & Buns
Who do you think will take home the Custom Championship Title Belt? I am hoping it is a tie after tie after tie because I don’t want this contest to ever end!
Rob Riggle and Nikki Garcia will host the once-in-a-lifetime event, which will be called by Cari Champion and Chris Rose.
Since Netflix needs more than 10 minutes of content, there will be a pre-show featuring the only man who beat Joey Chestnut in 15 years.
Competitive eater Matt Stonie will take on three decorated Olympians in a fight for who can eat the most chicken wings. They include: nine-time Olympic Medalist in swimming Ryan Murphy, Bronze-Medalist in water polo Max Irving, twelve-time Olympic Medalist in swimming Ryan Lochte.
Competitive eater Leah Shutkever will attempt to set yet another Guinness World Record LIVE, as she tries to eat the most watermelon ever consumed in three minutes!
Chestnut VS. Kobayashi: Unfinished Beef will stream live at 3p EST/12n PST on Netflix.
