How many calories can the amazing hot dog eating champ consume?

How many hot dogs before his stomach goes boom?

Does he lust after each dog?

Is his brain in a fog?

Does he know they’re made of meat?

His opponent he must really want to beat?

Does he know that in each hot dog is a dead cow?

Does this make his tongue go oh wow?

Or does it make his stomach think it’s throwing up now?

Where is the hot dog eating champion now?

Is his trophy shaped like a consumed, digested cow?

Is he enjoying his dead cow eating trophy and living with his cat, meow?

Is it sad to see him plow through his food?

Is it sad that this is the only thing that lifts up his mood?

I hope I am not being too rude.

Well, you won first prize for eating a dead animal, so congratulations, dude!
