Joey Chestnut banned from Nathan’s Hot Dog eating contest

A national travesty has occurred, one that the United States may not ever recover from.

On Tuesday, 16-time Nathan’s Hot Dog eating champion and peak of human athleticism Joey Chestnut was banned from competing in the hot dog competition he made famous, according to the New York Post. Major League Eating banned Chestnut from competing in the contest because of his endorsement deal with vegan food, per Front Office Sports.
