The 2025 Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest proved that Joey Chestnut is still the best in the game. At DraftKings Sportsbook, Joey Chestnut was the massive favorite to take back his belt after missing last year’s contest.

Chestnut dominated the competition once again, eating 70.5 hot dogs en route to his 2025 Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest win. He has cemented himself once again as the all-time greatest competitive eater. Not only is he the best in the game, but there is still a wide margin between him and the rest of the group.
Chestnut was +215 to break his own record of 76 hot dogs eaten. Unfortunately, he came up just a few hot dogs short of that record.

These were the odds to finish second behind Joey Chestnut:

Patrick Bertoletti ended up finishing second in that competition, winning that market at +155. He still has a long way to go to catch up to the great Joey Chestnut, but he did well to finish second in this competition.
