    There is nothing listed in the eatfeats database for this contest:

    Has it just been listed, or did I look incorrectly?

    Is he going to throw a few bones to some worthless amateurs like he did in the past just to get bodies to compete against him?

    The article mentions that they want Joey Chestnut to compete against Kobi:

    “The rest of the lineup is still being filled out, but here’s to hoping San Jose native and longtime hot dog title holder/Kobayashi nemesis Joey Chestnut makes an appearance.”
