A Chicago competitive eater took home the annual 4th of July Nathan's Famous hot dog eating contest.
Thursday, July 4, 2024 5:28PMPatrick Bertoletti of Chicago gobbled down 58 hot dogs to win his first men's title Thursday at the annual Nathan's Famous Fourth of July hot dog eating contest.
The reigning men's champion, Joey "Jaws" Chestnut, didn't attend the competition this year over a sponsorship tiff. Instead, Chestnut will compete against soldiers at a U.S. Army base in El Paso later in the day. Chestnut won 16 out of 17 previous competitions. Thousands of fans flock each year to the event held outside the original Nathan's location in Brooklyn's Coney Island, a beachfront destination with amusement parks and a carnivalesque summer culture.
