Winner of Nathan’s hot dog-eating contest downs 68 franks and buns

Congratulations are in order, I guess, for Joey Chestnut of San Jose, Calif., who won this year’s Nathan’s Famous Fourth of July Hot Dog Eating Contest.
Chestnut snarfed down 68 hot dogs and buns in 10 minutes, 3 1/2 more than archrival Takeru Kobayashi of Japan.
Chestnut has now won the contest three years in a row. Before that, Kobayashi held the title for six straight years.
