    There is a vital piece of information missing lol these aren’t regular hot dogs that are being used. They are jumbo. I only ate the regular ones, and never tried the jumbo ones, so I am not sure how many to a pound they are. Also one of them has wasabi and another ghost peppers. Good luck Molly!!

    Yeah, regulation Nathan’s dogs are large at 16 oz for 8.
    THESE are 2.7 oz dogs.
    Pat failed for a reason… tough even if he is at peak form.

    How would it be at all difficult for someone who has eaten 216 ounces of steak in 20 minutes, plus the trimmings, to eat 81 ounces of hotdogs in 15? What’s so huge about this challenge? Are the toppings really big?

    The dog is 6-7oz each . NJ doesn’t take 2 hours to drive through the entire state from one end to the other .

    Has Molly ever been unable to finish a challenge? Was there ever one where she was too full to continue and had to stop eating?

    Molly was part of a 4 person team that failed to finish the 54 inch pizza at Big Mama’s & Papa’s

    Molly clearly ate her quarter at BMPP. How about solo challenges?

    Molly lost that challenge with Bob Shoudt at Champs Pizza & Subs in Maryland (the one Carmen and Wayne finished).

    I think she ate her half on that one too @12:50. I’m was asking about solo challenges.

    The only thing I can remember her not winning was the taco challenge with Kobayashi, and if you watch the video of it she is eating insanely fast and it seems that she ate way more than him before being disqualified for reversing. I think she was maybe nervous because of his notoriety and decided to go all out and it was just too fast.

    Molly has rarely lost individually, but besides her two losses to Kobyashi at Chronic Taco, she also lost a pumpkin pie contest to Jamie McDonald and to Kobayashi again in the Taco in a Bag challenge in Chicago. She also tied Pat Bertoletti in a qualifier for Battle of the Big Eaters when it first started.

    Did Molly win her solo attempt at the Don in Mama Mia’s in Rockford, Illinios?

    Lets forget group challenges because it never reflects ones true capacity due to the fact that the others could not carry their weight. Molly has a date with a very rough challenge on Aug 5th. The guy who runs the restaurant is not giving away 5k anytime soon. He knows the challenge is nearly impossible for any human to pull off but he probably does not know who Molly is. The challenge does not mention if pro eaters are not allowed to compete so if this clown tries to pull any funny stuff at the last minute legal action should be taken asap

    i would like to see Molly do an exhibition attempting 70 hot dogs. I dont think she could pull it off . She only ate 38 in her only Nathans qualifier a few yrs ago

    I think she did, she just couldn’t announce it because it was filmed for a TV show that seemingly never aired. Would have been amazing to see her destroy a 13 pound pizza.

    Molly and Kobe could make millions as a duo touring around the US doing eating challenges together . Maybe George Shea could be coerced into MC their events

    6:13: She ate 31 hot dogs in her qualifier for Nathan’s:

    Chestnut would own her in hot dogs and i think she knows it but she would be competing and winning against her friend Sudo and not Chestnut

    She won gringo the first year. They didn’t count two of her trays. The issue was never remedied.

    The most badass thing about Molly is that even when she’s hitting the wall, gagging from swallowing huge chunks of food whole, she’s somehow able to force her way through it and end the challenge looking totally unfazed.

    The issue over Molly beating Koby the first year was totally swept under the rug. Sad, really, because you know that it’s the Koby show and the point isn’t to have a legit credible contest.

    Isn’t 31 more than Chestnut did in his 1st qualifier??

    Chestnut ate 23 in his first qualifer with no performance enhance drugs then he discovered the green powder

    I saw Molly do her 31 hot dogs at a Nathan’s qualifier in Minnesota. I had seen her eat before so booed her effort that day because About half way through the contest she started playing with the food. Miki Sudo was watching from the crowd. Molly clearly did not want to reveal her capacity limits to Miki that day: it was obviously more than 31. And that was five years ago. She was still a relative unknown to the eating world.

    She had some real bad mouth issues in that contest. Just got surgery.

    I’m the only whacko who thinks people take drugs to enhance their performance in competitive eating, but judging by my totals, no drug would be powerful enough to get my hot dog totals past 11

    I don;t want to give oj the satisfaction of posting on this site but molly will complete this challenge. I failed because I am out of eating shape and fat. My skills are diminished. I put molly in the top 5 eaters of all time, myself not included. The issues with this challenge are that the hot dogs are gross, they are essentially dirty water dogs. I was told by the owner that they were 6 to a pound for the dog, putting them just under 3 oz per dog,they are shitty 4 to a lb dogs, plus toppings, so each one weights 6-8 oz. The other issue is they are put in a certain order so that number 25 is laced with wasabi, then the last 3 are topped with spicy and spicier sauces so that the last one has a ghost pepper sauce. Molly will complete this. I will be surprised if she does not.

    Pat it is noble of you to call out this anonymous scumbag for who he or she is. Im talking about OJ Rifkin who takes pleasure in allowing other anonymous cowards to post mean and hateful remarks about others where as to those same individuals wouldnt dare make such comments to their faces knowing they would get cursed out punched out or spit at

    They had a similar challenge in 2006 at Mill Basin Deli in Brooklyn NY 35 hot dogs in similar weight but they gave you 1hr and the prize was $5000 . Not sure if anyone attempted it or completed it .
