haha, hell yeah! I actually watched this on ESPN. I'll be honest, even as an American who is proud to have this title that we've so dearly earned, the 'tie' in regulation was a stretch. You could see that the 59th dog wasn't in Chestnut's mouth when regulation was over, but he was covering his mouth with his hand and eventually got it in.
Still though, 59 hot dogs in ~10 minutes is nothing short of incredible. Then, taking a rest (i.e. allowing your body to process the information), and pounding 5 more as quickly as possible.... that's gotta be rough. It was entertaining to watch, in a somewhat comical way.
