It's been a long winter recovering from the disappointing 2025 wiener eating szn. With opening night tonight, it's time to reflect and summarize what happened last year. We dropped 26% from 2024, finishing at 483. This is the lowest EVER. Prev low was 590 #TheHotDogCount

The count starts at 8:05pm ET tonight! Enjoy it, this could be our last opening night for a while with the lockout looming. Lets make it count and not hold anything back! #TheHotDogCount

I’m thrilled to be returning to the Nathan’s Famous Fourth of July Hot Dog Eating Contest. This event means the world to me. It’s a cherished tradition, a celebration of American culture, and a huge part of my life. (1/3)

[ChatBae Hot Dog Commissioner @HotDogCommish]

We are almost half way through the season and on pace for a career low. Hot Dog fatigue is real. We currently sit at 230 wieners which is a 544 pace. A 17% drop from last year. #TheHotDogCount
