Good luck to Micah "Wing Kong" Collins. The International Federation of Competitive Eating pro has qualified for the final table at the annual July 4 Nathan's Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest at Coney Island. The former Wing Bowl contender will square off alongside three-time Wing Bowl champ Joey Chestnut, who holds the Nathan's Mustard Yellow Belt. Japanese eating machine Takeru Kobayashi will also compete again this year, as will Patrick Bertoletti and Rich "The Locust" LeFevre, who got cheers in the past for chowing down at Wing Bowl wearing a Donovan McNabb jersey. Collins recently qualified in Charlotte, N.C. after two failed attempts.

Joey Chestnut should also enter a teeth-off.

I cannot watch that. When they stuff hot dogs and bread in their mouth and swallow copious amount of water to wash them down it is disgusting. Everything dripping from their mouth. Gross.

This guy looks a little like Sloth from the Goonies with a goatee.
