Takeru Kobayashi Vows To Regain Hot Dog Eating Competition Crown

"Last year Kobayashi said he was suffering from some physical ailments, including a tooth problem and a sore jaw, that may have hampered his performance. This time, he 'can simply not be counted out,' Mayor Michael Bloomberg said at a pre-competition rally and weigh-in on Thursday. Weighing 128 pounds and dressed in basketball shorts, a T-shirt and flip-flops, Kobayashi posed for pictures while flexing his muscles and holding a hot dog and bun." [Link]
