Man, I don't know. They don't skimp on the size of the hot dogs or the buns - and you have to eat both. Maybe 4 or 5 and I'd be done. I just don't understand how these guys knock back over 70 hot dogs and buns in one sitting. Joey Freaking Chestnut.

Yeah Joey jaws is a machine. We watch this every year. It’s so stupid lol.

We watched it one year like 15 years ago and now it’s a tradition.

My favorite part is the intros. That announcer dude is one of a kind.

I think my max would be 2. Maybe 3 if I wanted to feel like crap. All that bread would destroy me!
