Due to COVID-19, The 2020 Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest will take place the first time in an indoor arena without any fans to witness the live event which usually takes place in Coney Island, NY.
Defending Champion Joey Chestnut is in search of his 13th career Mustard Yellow Belt. He’ll face off against five other challengers in an attempt to also complete a four-peat in the competition.
Chestnut is vying to break his world record of 74 hot dogs and buns that he set when the competition was in Brooklyn two years ago.
In the Women’s side, Miki Sudo will try to win her seventh career women’s title at Nathan’s. Last year, she took home the crown in her division with a total of 31 hot dogs and buns eaten.
Chestnut is -1400 favorite to win and Sudo at -700 favorite.
