Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest

I was today’s year old when I found out there is a Nathan’s female hot dog eating contest.

They all looked like they were going to blow chunks.

Unpleasant to watch, don’t need the HD closeups.
I kinda knew a dude who was a competitive eater. He's been in the Nathan's competition before. He was never a challenger so no one would know his name, he was one of the unfeatured extras at the table for a few years there. He said they have kiddie pools set up behind the stage at stuff like this where they all just purge and yack it all back out after they leave the stage. It'd pretty god damned disgusting the way it was described to me. He also told me once, and I quote 'kobyashi is a little bitch'

Doesn’t surprise me. I don’t follow this stuff at all, but I think most competitive eating competitions require you to “keep” it down for a specific amount of time (~30 min) before you can unload.

What's the over/under on the amount of calories these guys are consuming in 10 minutes?

Watching all of that wet, soggy bread being consumed makes me feel sick. It looks like they are grabbing handfuls of vomit and cramming it down their throats. Hard pass.
This is what Joey Chestnut consumed on the 4th:

Calories: 17,920 (896 percent of daily recommended value)
Sodium: 48,980 mg (20,408 percent)
Total Fat: 1,116 g (17,169 percent)
Saturated fat: 372 g (18,600 percent)
Trans fat: 62 g (28,182 percent)
Total Carbs: 1,490 g (4,960 percent)
Dietary Fiber: 62 g (248 percent)
Sugars: 124 g
Protein: 620 g
Cholesterol: 1,860 mg
 
Is standard procedure to throw up after the allotted time? I would think it would be tough to digest this amount of food

And then proceeded to throw it all up (a select few rare ones keep them down but most throw up).

Yes, almost all of them do.

I'm friends with a few of them and have met tge majority of them. I've assisted at these events and yes, upon completion they go to the bathroom and let it fly.
