4th of July = LOTS OF HOTDOGS




Today was Coney Island's annual hot dog eating contest.  We all love watching these people eat enormous amounts of hot dogs.   It's even a sport because it's on espn!  For me, it's one of my favorite things about the 4th of July besides bbqs and fireworks.  This year's winner was defending champion Joey Chestnut with a world record 68 hot dogs.  Too bad 6 time winner Kobayashi, your reign of eating is over!  I don't think I've ever eaten that many in a single year.  But it still amazes me how enamored we all get when this contest is held.  Good for American society for caring about things that really matter.
