Nathan's Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest
Patrick Bertoletti and Miki Sudo are celebrating their victories at Nathan's Famous hot dog eating contest at Coney Island, in the New York borough of Brooklyn, New York, on July 4, 2024. The 2024 Nathan's hot dog eating contest is kicking off at the corner of Surf and Stillwell in Coney Island, New York. Although the tournament is the same, one of the main participants--and an American icon--is not in attendance. This year, Joey Chestnut is not part of the contest due to a contract dispute with Major League Eating, leaving him on the sidelines and away from a chance at the 17th Mustard Belt. That is opening the door (and esophagus) for Patrick Bertoletti, who is winning in Chestnut's absence. On the women's side, Miki Sudo is dominating the field--Sudo has won the Ketchup Belt 10 times and is finishing on top in every contest she's entering. (Photo by Deccio Serrano/NurPhoto)
