devito delarossa and kratchie put the sport on the map before that contest was a joke they would beg people off the street to compete in coney / Convicted stalker Jo Rose Gavonne would have easily been given a spot

i met the 1980 Nathans champ Paul Sneideman aka 80s porn star Jerry Butler in Marine park in bklyn in 1993 Nice guy a physical fitness freak Very good looking full head of wavy blonde hair He was doing a ton of situps on the board that day Ended up chatting with him as we were walking around the park Didnt have much to say about his porn days but felt more comfortable talking about the jets he was a big sports fan He mentioned that he blew all his money on drugs in the 80s. Mind you this was way before i knew he competed at nathans In 1993 Nathans had little if any credibility on television or for that matter newspapers. he did mention something about masturbating to some girl in high school , mentioned that black women are bred for sex . When i asked what he thought of having sex with porn actress vannessa del rio he replied “oh she was the best” We parted ways soon after He was driving a beat up plymouth duster from the late 70s with a takeout chinese menu on the back window He told me he drove a school bus or was employed as a NYC bus driver Gave me his number i never called maybe it was for the best I wish i knew at the time he competed in Nathans
