Eddie’s hot dog challenge is coming up on Friday. He will have to eat 70 hot dogs in 24 hours if he wants to win $800.
Last week, he decided to shoot a message to the GOAT of eating challenges Joey Chestnut on Instagram and ask for some advice. Chestnut won Nathan’s Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest this year eating 70.5 hot dogs in 10 minutes. Well, Chestnut responded to Eddie’s DM with some encouraging and not so encouraging words.
He told Eddie the challenge won’t be easy and he doesn’t think most normal people could do it, but they could probably do 40 in 24 hours. He suggested using smaller dogs and smaller buns. He added that like anything, practice helps if he has the time. He also suggested Eddie do a cleanse the night before like you would do for a surgery the next day. He ended the message with a “good luck!”
The message made Eddie a little more nervous since Chestnut said it’s likely not possible, but he’s still focused on the possibility of winning $800. Be sure to subscribe to Bobby Bones Show on YouTube for the full live stream starting on Friday, July 25th of Eddie eating the hot dogs.
