Is the rematch between Takeru 'Tsunami' Kobayashi and Joey Chestnut in doubt? Last year at the Nathan's annual 4th of July Hot Eating Contest, Kobayashi narrowly defeated Chestnut to win the Mustard Belt for the sixth year in a row. Defending his title this week may not be possible for Kobayashi. First, his mother passed away in March, causing the Tsunami to take a sabbatical from training.
Now there's a story circulating that he has an arthritic jaw and is only able to stick one finger in his mouth. I'm really looking forward to the showdown between these two. I'm also looking forward to seeing how the underdog "black Widow" will do again this year. And as tradition dictates I'll go buy a package of Nathan's Famous to celebrate with.
