    13 and 3/4 poinds? That is unbelievable. Even though Joey beat Matt by 2 1/2 pounds. Matt’s total was really something. The others should not feel bad, though. They were against eating against a really great eater.

    Saying you did a nice job, Joey, is quite an understatement.

    Your photo should be beside the Wikipedia expression of “kicking ass!” It’s almost unimaginable that someone could eat almost 14 pounds of rib meat already off the bone, let alone having to pull it from the bone.

    My Lord! You must be part hyena!

    How can you trust the accuracy of those numbers when they didn’t bother to come up with precise weights for Miki or Juan? Is anybody nieve enough to think their actual totals were 7.00 and 6.00 respectively? I’d sure like to know what happened there.

    I thought they only kept female records in hot dogs. Is this something new?

    That’s sort of like winning first prize in a beauty contest when you are the only participant.

    Will someone get rid of Sam? He’s not a good emcee, a terrible judge, and treats the eaters like they are his employees. Joey and Sonya eat a gazillion hotdogs and this guy takes dump on the bus. Learn your manners buddy. Treats people like shit just ask Pat.

    Aside from a hot dog that Rich Shea bought in Coney Island 4yrs ago in which he split in half and only ate half, Sam is the only MLE MC that puts food in his mouth

    Is it puts food or puts foot in his mouth?

    Has anyone ever said anything positive about George and Rich Shea?
