Joey Chestnut a Slight Favorite Over Kobayashi in July 4 Hot Dog Showdown
Jul 1, 2009 – 9:40 AM
One of the great rivalries in the history of sport will resume on Saturday, as Joey Chestnut and Takeru Kobayashi square off in the annual Fourth of July Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest. And the early betting odds list Chestnut, the two-time defending champion, as a slight favorite to repeat over Kobayashi, who won every year from 2001 to 2006.
Yes, you can bet on hot dog eating, and Bodog has the odds: Chestnut is a 2-3 favorite, with Kobayashi just behind him at 11-10. If you're in the mood to bet on an underdog, you can either take Tim "Eater X" Janus at 10-1 or the field at 12-1. The over-under for the winning number of dogs is 61.5. Last year, Chestnut and Kobayashi tied at 59 dogs in the 10-minute regulation time, and then Chestnut won in overtime.
My money is on Chestnut to win again this year, edging Kobayashi with a total of right around 60.
