Joey Chestnut Loses an Eating Competition!
There is no joy in Mudville.
Joey Chestnut, the human eating machine, has lost an eating contest. Someone go out and check if the moon is blue.
The upset occurred in Buffalo and the target food was wings. (Of course it was wings. What else would you eat in Buffalo?) The winner of the event was an Australian man named James Webb, who succeeded in scarfing down 276 wings in 12 minutes. Chestnut finished the event with a by-comparison paltry 240 wings over the same time period.
