It’s true. I find the hot dog eating contest very disgusting. I’m not talking about gluttony or the waste. Just the mechanics of it. The slurping and the gagging. Not for me.

BUT

I am glad that it’s back to a live audience.  Hot. Dog.

WORLD! The @originalnathans July Fourth International Hot Dog Contest is BACK with a live audience! Experience the majesty that is this majestic event! pic.twitter.com/5yQQh8r4Pw
