Famed competitive eater Joey “Jaws” Chestnut has reclaimed his title at the Nathan’s Famous Fourth of July hot dog eating contest after skipping last year’s event.

The champ is back. After a year away from the famed eating contest on the Coney Island boardwalk, Joey Chestnut returned to once again dominate at Nathan’s Famous International Hot Dog Eating Contest by consuming 70 1/2 hot dogs and buns in 10 minutes to win another “Mustard Belt.

People tune into the Nathan's Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest to watch Joey Chestnut and Miki Sudo. We prefer to keep our eyes on the underdogs.
