Why is this news every year? Why does anyone care that these people can eat that many hot dogs? All the starving people in third world countries and right here in NYC and we care to watch these people revel in gluttony? Truly, I need someone to explain to me WHY eating nearly 54 hotdogs is such a big freakin' deal...

http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2006/07/05/SPEEDEATER.TMP Gersh Kuntzman, the judge who ruled in Kobayashi's favor, saw it differently. "The effluvia never touched the table," Kuntzman said, a distinction he claimed was part of the International Federation of Competitive Eating's official rules.

In that photo, Chestnut (and I guess someone in the first row) is pointing at Kobayashi because they've seen him "regurgitate" (eww) back in his cup and then try and drink it (Eww!). All that's supposed to be against the rules and Kobayashi ought to have been disqualified. In Sfgate today: Controversy dogs eating contest

In most sports, ther is a second and third place. This guy should at least get a silver medal and stance on a podium.
