Only in America do thousands of people gather to watch the world’s best competitive eaters race to eat as many hot dogs as possible in just 10 minutes. Every Fourth of July, Coney Island turns one of the country’s strangest traditions into a packed, nationally televised event that people travel from all over to see. It’s weird, it’s chaotic, and somehow it’s become one of America’s most iconic Independence Day celebrations #america #hotdogs #joeychestnut #coneyisland
