- crashflow, on 11/01/2007, -1/+31FTA:
"Chestnut beat 12 other contestants. Kobayashi, who won all previous Krystal Hamburger Eating Championships, didn't compete this year because of lingering jaw pain from having a wisdom tooth extracted in June.
The 29-year-old Kobayashi received chiropractic treatment before losing his hot-dog-eating belt in the Nathan's Famous Fourth of July tussle in New York."
I love how competitive eating has its injured list. - rdrysdale, on 11/05/2007, -1/+31All he got was $10,000 dollars? They should have given him at least $10 per calorie consumed.
- inactive, on 11/05/2007, -1/+26The grossest thing about these contests is how they dunk the burgers and hot dogs in water before eating them. I guess soggy buns are easier to swallow? Disgusting. I'd vomit after the second soggy bun.
- DeskFlyer, on 11/05/2007, -0/+23I bet he also set a new record for the world's longest restroom visit shortly afterward.
- wiirdo, on 10/31/2007, -1/+20I'd hate to be his plumber.
- hockey, on 10/31/2007, -1/+18You guys obviously don't have what it takes.
- inactive, on 11/01/2007, -0/+16Something better than making 10 grand in 8 minutes?
- rikwakefield, on 11/01/2007, -0/+13"It's a lot easier to slide something down that is wet"
- I bet it is ;) - mistercharlie, on 10/31/2007, -0/+12Like sitting around making stupid comments on Digg all day.
- crashflow, on 11/01/2007, -1/+11make it gravy then...
- inactive, on 10/31/2007, -0/+10Holy crap, look at the nick names of the contestants:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Krystal_Square_Off
Eater X, The Locust, The Black Widow, Badlands..wow. Stuffing your face is serious business - FloppyLlamaDigg, on 11/01/2007, -0/+9I thought I was having a stroke when I read that.

Joey on the left kobayashi on the right. picture from Nathan’s Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest - driftwood07, on 10/30/2007, -0/+7you really just aren't trying if you have google and the man's name, Joey Chestnut
- sully213, on 10/31/2007, -1/+8Mmmmm! Baby! The other other white meat!
- Eljefedeath, on 10/30/2007, -0/+7I bet he is not fat at all. Skinny ***** make the best pro eaters.
- Koldkompress, on 10/31/2007, -0/+7What are you? An ant?
- iPood, on 10/31/2007, -0/+6I wouldn't, the man is probably rich.
- newzealtralian, on 11/01/2007, -2/+8I would vomit after the first soggy bun. I can't stand soggy bread. Have gone without lunch more than once because of soggy sandwhich syndrome.
- evilregis, on 10/31/2007, -0/+6That's why you put a layer of PB on EACH SLICE OF BREAD and the jelly in between!
- voldak, on 10/31/2007, -0/+6These people really are crazy. I read an article after Chesnutt won the Nathan's Hot Dog eating contest. He was saying how he has mastered some technique with his stomach muscles which enables him to cram more food into his stomach. These professional eaters are very interesting. And yes, that is a ridiculous amount of burgers....
- cphelps, on 10/30/2007, -0/+6That he's 10 grand richer than you and not an annoying *****.
- Eljefedeath, on 10/31/2007, -1/+6But your life is so big and grand and you exercises your huge mind with huge deeds that you have the need to comment on digg about something you feel is so far beneath you. Also, I'm sure that those starving people in developing countries are not combing the Internet to read about an obscure publicity stunt for a second rate fast food chain.
- iPood, on 10/30/2007, -0/+5Seriously...Kobayashi is pretty ripped.
- robisfunky, on 10/30/2007, -0/+5 Ahh yes. Moronic Diggers making dumbass comments without RTFA. Typical.
- coit, on 10/30/2007, -1/+6Here's what he left out...
I would like TO HAVE SEX with this man in a restaurant and order 20 hamburgers TO STUFF UP HIS ASS, and after 3 minutes STUFF THE other 20 UP THERE AS WELL. - spinningobo, on 10/31/2007, -0/+5Not if they're African American babies.
- RandomTaskMan, on 10/31/2007, -0/+5i want a video. :/
- jun2san, on 10/31/2007, -1/+6I wouldn't call a krystal burger a hamburger. It's more like a thin slab of meat between a small roll. Also, I watched my friend compete against Joey Chestnut here in Jacksonville last year and Chestnut is a beast. It was disgusting to watch, yet I couldnt look away. Oh, one more thing, a common misconception is that competitive eaters must be fat. No, most of them on stage (including my friend) were actually pretty muscular. The more muscle you have, the higher your metabolism is, which means you can eat more.
- ThornHarvestar, on 10/31/2007, -1/+5Kobayashi is still my hero.
- chedabob, on 10/31/2007, -0/+4Isn't that like saying driving a car is rubbing it in the faces of people that ride the bus?
- mashw, on 10/30/2007, -0/+4Yes, us not enjoying the benefits and liberties of living in a wealthy country is really going to solve the third world problems.
Stfu, this not happening would not have solved ANYTHING. - BornLegend, on 10/31/2007, -0/+4A one hundred calories burger is one healthy burger. =)
- SanTe, on 10/31/2007, -0/+4That pic is priceless.
- sgtpppr, on 10/31/2007, -0/+4How did a news post about a hamburger eatting contest turn into a pregnant fetish thread of comments?
- boberto, on 10/30/2007, -0/+4Seriously, these eating competitions are becoming big enough that articles shouldn't be titled "A competitive eater..." but rather "Competitive eater Joey Chestnut..."
Anyone who watches the hot dog competition knows who he is. - blakeage, on 10/31/2007, -1/+5Don't be sad dude
- blitzkriegpunk, on 10/31/2007, -2/+6You've clearly never been with a preggo. Maybe it's just me, but I find pregnant women to be extremely attractive for some odd reason. Not sure what it is, they're just so ***** cute.
Coming from a guy with 3 kids, so yeah. :| - tomess, on 10/30/2007, -0/+4You'll bet?
If you took the bloody time to actually read the article you would infact see he was from San Jose which I believe is in California which suprisingly enough is in America. Learn something new everyday don't you. - inactive, on 11/05/2007, -1/+5On average swallowing 1 hamburger every 4.66 seconds. I can't even eat a 6 krystal combo without starting to fill sick to my stomach from the smell (I swear to god they smell like babies to me for some reason). Hats off to this guy.
- sully213, on 10/31/2007, -0/+3I"m thinking competitive eaters really don't get indigestion they way weak-stomached mortals do. He'll be quite alright I'm sure.
- rikwakefield, on 10/31/2007, -0/+3eww! I think i'd rather take my time and eat them than *drink* 103 hamburgers.
- yujie, on 10/31/2007, -0/+3I eat 1 Hamburger in 5 minutes
- bordo, on 10/31/2007, -0/+3103 Krystals @ 160 calories per burger = 16,480 calories, which is over a weeks worth of calories....even worse, 103 Krystals contains 309g of saturates fat, or 1545% of you daily suggested intake... i sure hope this guy "purges"
- inactive, on 10/31/2007, -0/+3seriously, how the hell do you eat a burger in even 5 seconds
100 times - cphelps, on 10/30/2007, -0/+3I could say you were throwing ***** around by trying to downplay his accomplishment. Argument lost.
- Eljefedeath, on 10/30/2007, -0/+3My apologies. I've lived my whole life in the south west and never experienced the Crystal mini-burger. 2nd rate applies to business sense, not culinary goodness. I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me.
- sully213, on 10/30/2007, -0/+3If you've ever seen a picture or video of Joey Chestnut you'd see that he's not very big at all, quite average in fact. For that matter, most competitive eaters I've seen are not morbidly obese as one might think, most are average size.
- NeoCortex, on 10/30/2007, -0/+3It should at least be $10,000 plus the cost of the triple bypass in a few years.
