SI may have settled it incorrectly - perhaps subject to a recount

It's 10 for win then, 1 for every hotdog won by. Hence +19.

The punters loved it!

just watched last years? what is the contraversy about. is there someone who would run him close but aint allowed to compete?

http://www.thestar.com/news/world/article/831869--controversy-erupts-at-annual-hotdog-eating-championship

The 32-year-old Kobayashi did not eat this year because he refused to sign a contract with Major League Eating

Anyone see "The World Championships of Ping Pong" on Sky Sports over the weekend? Had to check it wasn't Dodgeball on Sky Movies.

The old chubby Red-Dog might be worth training up for a coup in one of these events.

Years ago I worked for a firm that were the official sportsbook partner of this and we put William "The Fridge" Perry into it and he managed a grand total of six hotdogs.  Apparently it is harder than it seems.  Shame about Kobayashi.....we did fortunes on him as short as 1/6 and he is a bit like the Fosbury of the competitive eating world in that he was the first to eat the bun and sausage separately like they all do now.  All a bit sick really.  Great blog on it at the tao of poker.

How come there is no reference to Damon Runyan's "A Piece Of Pie" ?
