Joey Chestnut, a 16-time champion, returns to Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest on July 4 after missing last year due to a sponsorship dispute. In a recent post, he clarified the controversy, emphasizing his longstanding partnership with Nathan's. This year, he aims to set a new world record following last year's champion, Patrick Bertoletti, who consumed 58 hot dogs. The contest, a longstanding tradition since 1916, attracts competitors from various countries, with standing records at stake, fueling anticipation for the upcoming event.
"While I have and continue to partner with a variety of companies, including some in the plant-based space, those relationships were never a conflict with my love for hot dogs."
"I'm excited to be back on the Coney Island stage, doing what I live to do, and celebrating the Fourth of July with hot dogs in my hands."
"Chestnut is staging his return with hopes of setting a new world record at the 2025 Nathan's Famous Fourth of July International Hot Dog-Eating Championship."
"Last year, World Champion Patrick Bertoletti took home his first title with 58 hot dogs and buns in the 10-minute, all-you-can-eat contest."
