Here's one of the nominations for that honor by an SI writer. For more essays, click here.    It was like wondering about a basketball while interviewing LeBron James or foraging for boxing gloves in front of Cassius Clay. Yet at that rooftop bar on July 3, 2006, here's how I saw it: Joey Chestnut seemed to be a rather normal 22-year-old, there needed to be free hot dogs somewhere at this press event, and I -- at the time, a starving SI intern -- still hadn't eaten lunch.</description><pubDate>Thu, 22 Nov 2007 07:19:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>Requiem for a Samurai of Hot Dogs</title><link>http://www.time.com/time/nation/article/0,8599,1640007,00.html?xid=feed-cnn-topics</link><guid>http://www.time.com/time/nation/article/0,8599,1640007,00.html?xid=feed-cnn-topics</guid><description>The unthinkable happens: Kobayashi loses the Nathan's hot dog eating contest.

The two hit it off instantly. She was immediately attracted to how normal and down to earth he seemed. Though the choice of venue for the couple's first date -- a wing eating contest -- was a little odd, she loved sports and had never witnessed people eat so much so quickly. Little did she know that her date would soon be the king of the competitive-eating jungle. As the night drew to a close, Joey had a confession for his date: "I took you here for a reason. This is what I do."</description><pubDate>Tue, 03 Jul 2007 06:18:00 EDT</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
