Joey Chestnut 2025 Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest Odds -2500
Chestnut is currently -2500 to win the Hot Dog Eating Contest.
Chestnut didn’t participate last year, as he was under a sponsorship agreement with Impossible Foods.
However, the greatest hot dog eater of all time couldn’t stay away from the game he loves for too long. The only thing missing was a document with two simple words stating “I’m back.”
The key to his success involves not only yoga and stretching but also burping exercises.
