Social media personality Paige Spiranac has thrown her hat into the ring to replace Joey Chestnut in the upcoming July 4 hot dog eating contest.
In a bold move, she revealed her impressive hot-dog eating record, stating: “I’m available to fill in. My record is 6.5 hotdogs in 10 minutes.” It’s clear that Spiranac is ready to take on the challenge and prove herself in the competitive eating arena.
The news of Chestnut being unable to compete due to his brand deal with Impossible Foods came as a shock to the world of competitive eating. Chestnut, a 16-time champion, holds the record for devouring a whopping 76 hot dogs in just 10 minutes, making him a formidable force in the contest.
This news has left a void in the event, but Spiranac’s willingness to step up could inject some much-needed excitement and star power back into the competition.
