To celebrate the 250th anniversary of the American Declaration of Independence, the traditional hot dog eating contest at Coney Island took place. Joey Chestnut, a renowned competitor, won his 18th title by consuming 66 hot dogs in ten minutes. Despite this impressive feat, Chestnut expressed disappointment, noting that he did not break his personal record of 76 hot dogs set in 2021. He attributed his performance to the high temperatures and humidity, which affected both his condition and the texture of the buns. The winner was awarded the 'Mustard Belt,' a symbolic recognition of his achievement.
