Mayor Bloomberg's ban on large sweetened drinks in New York City has received a lot of publicity. The new poll asks where you think the Nathan's finals should move if they are banned by New York City. Big Pie in the Sky, seen in the Atlanta episode of Man vs. Food is the site for an 11alive.com article about the ban. update International Business Times has apparently been taken by an April Fools Day spoof about a forced switch to tofu hot dogs for the contest.

They’ll never move Nathan’s. Bloomberg and all future mayors love the publicity they get off the Nathan’s weigh in.
“As a matter of fact, I relish it. So let me make it a-bun-dantly clear, the hot dog holds a special place in the hearts and stomachs of all New Yorkers. But to be frank! I am but an amateur compared to the major league eaters squaring off on Saturday in Coney Island to show who cuts the mustard!”

I’ve always associated Nathan’s with New York, so, Long Island.

I like your style No Way! Have a great WE! 🙂
I gotta leave, as the DC metro area is threatened with high winds, possible tornadoes, flash rain, and large hail stones.
