Paul fixed a really good breakfast this morning, eggs with cheese, fake sausage and toast. So naturally with a full belly I want to tune into my favorite sport of all time, the Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest.
They changed the rules this year, instead of 12 minutes of eating they shortened it to 10, making the contest much more intense. Kobayashi and Joey Chestnut were the favorites for this year. Kobayashi (because of an arthritic jaw) lost last year to Joey Chestnut after six years of reigning champion, so this year it was all about the rematch and Kobayashi's jaw.
And what happened? The first tie ever in Nathan's history, it came down to five hot dogs. Winner by one bite: Joey Chestnut.
Paul and I then participated in a blood eating contest when we went to weed the garden. We have a mosquito infestation, but we also have some tasty green beans.
Happy 4th of July!
