WABC has uploaded a mini-podcast in which Curtis Sliwa, Republican candidate in last week's New York City Mayoral election, discusses his competitive eating experience. He says that his third place finish in the 1996 Nathan's Famous hot dog eating contest was assisted by stuffing three hot dogs in his pocket. He also discusses former NFL lineman William "The Refrigerator" Perry's disappointing four hot dog result in the 2003 Nathan's contest, which he claims was caused by injuries resulting from a fight with competitor Chris Eyre after Perry had an affair with Eyre's wife.

The New York City mayoral election is on Tuesday. The Republican candidate in that race, Guardian Angels founder Curtis Sliwa, competed in several Nathan’s Famous hot dog eating contests in the 1990s. At the July 3, 1998 weigh-in/press conference, Sliwa discussed his theory that defending champion Hirofumi Nakajima had been surgically modified to enhance his eating ability.
The source of the clip is “Footlong”, a documentary about a cross-country tour of hot dog restaurants. The Nathan’s weigh-in segment starts around 6:22
update Nov 1 The Daily Mirror has an article about competing against Sliwa in the 1997 Nathan’s Famous hot dog eating contest.
