 Nathan's annual 4th of July hot dog eating contest in New York is underway. Major League Eating co-founder George Shea says he's expecting a tight competition since 16-time Nathan's hot dog eating contest champ Joey Chestnut is sitting out this year due to an endorsement conflict. If he can't be with us, I'm very happy that he's with the troops celebrating in the armed forces. However, because he's not going to be there, we're going to have the fiercest contest in, I don't know, probably 15 years.
