Yesterday was July 4th. All weekend we saw great celebrations, parades, fireworks displays and BBQs. Everything we did, we did to honor America. We honored those brave men who fought to liberate us from the British Royal Empire, and we celebrated everyone who has fought for this country ever since. It all pales in comparison to what went on yesterday at Coney Island. Yesterday was the annual Nathan’s Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest, and the World Witnessed another dominating performance by Joey Chestnut, perhaps the greatest hero in American history… or something like that? I mean, what’s more American than stuffing yourself with fatty hot dogs until you’re on the brink of vomiting, right? However, it’s not all stars and stripes and freedom fries on Coney Island these days…
