Kobayashi 69 Hot Dogs- Joey Chestnut polished off 62 hot dogs and buns to win the 2011 Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest, but may not have pulled off the greatest competitive eating feat of the day. According to the Wall Street Journal live blog of both competitions, Takeru Kobayashi may have topped both Chestnut's feat on this Fourth of July and his all-time hot dog eating record. Kobayashi was competing in a sort of self-imposed exile this year.

He missed the 2010 Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest after a contract dispute with Major League Eating, which runs the contest, then was jailed after a bizarre appearance at the contest itself.
Competitive-Eater 337 Wings 30 Minutes- 337 chicken wings in 30 minutes at the Wing Bowl: Competitive-eating champ Takeru Kobayashi conquered Philadelphia's annual gustatory gorge-fest by eating 337 chicken wings in a half-hour before a crowd of nearly 20,000 at Wing Bowl XX. The Japanese phenom demolished the record of 255 set last year by Jonathan 'Super' Squibb. The Friday morning extravaganza drew thousands to the Wells Fargo Center before sunrise to watch competitors stuff themselves with chicken wings. Kobayashi claimed a $20,000 cash prize for his victory.

Squibb had been trying to win his fourth consecutive Wing Bowl crown, but the Berlin, N.J., man finished a distant second with 271 wings. It was the six-time Nathan's Hot Dog eating contest champ's first time competing at Wing Bowl, though he consumed a cheesesteak in 24 seconds as part of an eating exhibition last year.
