    Here we go again . Kobayashi will invite a handful of dopes to Vegas all inclusive compliments of the sponsor so they could make it look like he has some mediocre competition surrounding him

    When kobi and molly both tried the kick-a-poo at taco in a bag, kobi won… Anyone else remember that? And not just by a second or two

    Oj, can you post the links for that?

    When they did the taco challenge Molly tried one time and let it be. I was there when Kobi ate his. He practiced a dozen times and I was told watched everyone else’s attempt before he wanted his “official” try. I wouldn’t have said congrats that night if I had known that.

    The Taco in a Bag contest was not a head-to-head contest.

    Don’t get confused here, molly is a GREAT competitive eater, but being great and being better then Kobayashi are 2 different things. Molly lost wingbowl in 2015 to berti, then barely beat him in 2016.

    As it relates to practice and watching other people attempt a challenge first then learning from seeing how they did, that seems smart, and a good strategy. Seems like someone used a little forethought, and did not just show up and eat.

    @1:01 maybe you are right, but when all of your “events! Are set up to give kobi the advantage it is never really a fair playing field. I think he is more than GREAT, but he also made sure he ate last to study all other eaters. Kevin, Molly and Bob didn’t get the advantage of watching Kobi first.
