Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest Results: Patrick Bertoletti, Miki Sudo Prevail

Date:

Have you ever wondered who dominates the Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest when Joey Chestnut isn’t around?

This year’s Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest results brought some surprises and record-breaking moments. Let’s dive in.


Patrick Bertoletti Takes the Crown

Without Joey Chestnut competing due to a contractual dispute, Patrick “Deep Dish” Bertoletti seized the opportunity to shine.

Patrick Bertoletti chomped down 58 hot dogs and buns, setting a personal record and clinching his first Mustard Belt. This win was huge for Bertoletti, who has been a Major League Eating (MLE) competitor for over a decade but had never won this contest.

  • Record Holder: Bertoletti holds 32 world records, including 47 pieces of Big Apple pizza in 10 minutes.
  • The Contest: The battle was intense, with Bertoletti, Geoffrey Esper, and James Webb neck and neck until the final minutes.
  • Reaction: “I just can’t believe it,” Bertoletti said. “With Joey not here, I knew I had a shot.”

Geoffrey Esper came in second with 53 hot dogs, giving Bertoletti a run for his money.


Miki Sudo Shatters Records

On the women’s side, Miki Sudo continued her reign by eating 51 hot dogs and buns, becoming the first woman to break the 50-dog threshold and smashing her previous record.

  • 10th Title: Sudo secured her 10th pink championship belt.
  • Technique: She started with one dog at a time, then switched to two at a time, demonstrating her competitive edge.
  • Post-Contest: “I’ll probably look for something cold and refreshing,” she said, celebrating her victory.

Who Is Nathan’s New Champion?

Patrick Bertoletti is a seasoned competitor from Chicago. He’s known for his impressive eating records but never clinched the Mustard Belt until now. This victory marks a significant milestone in his eating career.

  • World Records: Bertoletti’s achievements span across various foods, like waffles and sour pickles.
  • Personal Best: This year, he beat his personal best by consuming 58 hot dogs in 10 minutes.

Joey Chestnut’s Absence

Why wasn’t Joey Chestnut at the 2024 Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest? The American icon was banned due to a contractual dispute with Major League Eating after signing an endorsement deal with Impossible Foods. Fans voiced their opinions with hashtags like #FreeJoey and #LetJoeyEat.
