Major League Eating seems to have an alleged cheating scandal with Nathan’s 4th of July Hot Dog Eating contest. Professional eater Nick Wehry, who is also the husband of women’s champ Miki Sudo is facing cheating allegations stemming from this year’s hot dog contest.
Wehry who is ranked 4th in the world is being accused of stealing other competitor’s plates. While this doesn’t seem like a big deal, the plates play a part in the counting process.
Wehry who is claiming the accusations as false, finished with 46.75 HDB but his score was adjusted to 51.75. Now Wehry is maintaining his innocence, he is now asking MLE to adjust his score back to 46.75 dogs over the fact he touched an opponent’s plates, which “gives the appearance or possibility of impropriety,”.
