Manteca Bulletin has the field for the bacon eating contest at Dell’Osso Family Farms in Lathrop, CA on June 19: Miki Sudo, Michelle Lesco, Erik Denmark, Juan Rodriguez, Steve Hendry, Lesley Ryder, Doug Ecks, Dixon West, Andrew Gutierrez and Jon Davis. Joey Chestnut missing the contest guarantees that he will compete in the Nathan's finals undefeated in the calendar year for the first time in his career and will also result in just one matchup between Joey Chestnut and Matt Stonie over the previous nine months before July 4. 40 entrants are expected in the amateur qualifier on June 18: a much larger field than any Nathan's qualifier.
