Netflix is preparing for a showdown on Labor Day! After Joey Chestnut was disqualified from this year’s Nathan’s Famous Fourth of July Hot Dog Eating contest due to his partnership with a rival veggie hot dog, he has a new place to eat.
Netflix just announced a hot dog-eating competition with rival champions Joey Chestnut and Takeru Kobayashi in an event titled Chestnut vs Kobayashi: Unfinished Beef. Kobayashi had recently revealed that he was retiring from competitive eating over health concerns, but he said, “Retiring for me will only happen after I take him down one last time. This rivalry has been brewing for a long time. Competing against Joey live on Netflix means fans all over the world can watch me knock him out.”
