Joey Chestnut To Defend Chicken Wing Eating Title
As if the hot dog situation wasn't wild enough...
Joey Chestnut literally shoves food in his face for a living. It doesn't sound like that bad of a career except for the fact that if I ate that much in one sitting I'd surely be dead.
Today Chestnut looks to defend his title as chicken wing champion at the National Buffalo Wing Festival. Last year he crushed 188 wings in 12 minutes to win. WHAT!?! 188 WINGS IN 12 MINUTES!?!?!
$2,500 goes to the winner. I feel like I could think of easier ways to make $2,500. Maybe not it 12 minutes... but I think I can handle that.
