NEW YORK - Reigning champ Joey Chestnut has logged his third consecutive win in Coney Island's annual hot dog eating contest with a world-record 68 franks.

DOGGIN' IT Hot dogs are as American as baseball and apple pie. So why not celebrate America's Independance Day with a horde of hot dog eating snapshots?
He defeated his archrival, six-time titleholder Takeru Kobayashi, in Saturday's Nathan's Famous Fourth of July International Hot Dog Eating Contest. Chestnut led throughout the contest.

Last year's event initially ended in a tie, with Chestnut and Kobayashi both gobbling down 59 hot dogs and buns in 10 minutes. Chestnut went on to win a dramatic five hot dog eat-off.

Chestnut is from San Jose, Calif. Kobayashi is from Japan.
