Joey Chestnut smoked Takeru Kobayashi during Netflix's $100K hot dog eating contest and fans loved it

For The Win (usatoday.com) 

Joey Chestnut and Takeru Kobayashi are still eating hot dogs at their big age.

For reasons beyond my comprehension, someone thought it would be a brilliant idea to have Chesnut and Kobayashi stuff themselves with hot dogs until they’re seemingly on the verge of puking…in front of a live audience. Apparently, it was to settle who was the one true top hot dog eater in the world for $100,000, a WWE-style championship belt and a hot dog trophy.

Netflix went all in on the production, including behind-the-scenes eating techniques, anatomy breakdowns and even warm-up competitions. Viewers watched people gouge themselves with a boatload of wings and watermelon before Joey and Kobayashi took the stage nearly 40 minutes after the special started. It was the first time the two championship eaters battled against each other in 15 years.

Once the competition was in full swing, I could bet the lint in my pocket that the room undoubtedly smelled awful (probably like sweat and beef — *GAG*) while both men exhausted themselves eating for 10 minutes straight.

Ultimately, Joey broke his personal record of 77 dogs with a whopping 83 dogs, smoking Kobayashi’s effort of 67. I hope they’re proud of themselves because this is DISGUSTING, and NEVER would be too soon if I had to witness this again.

Of course, this historical moment was not as revolting to some fans as it was to me, and they had a field day with the moment.

Here’s what they said:
