NEW YORK (1010 WINS) -- Think Joey Chestnut will win this year's hot dog eating contest? Don't bet on it.
The annual Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest will be held on July 4 in Coney Island.
New Jersey gaming enforcement has rejected a request to allow sportsbooks to take bets.
Last year, Chestnut beat out 20 competitors consuming a personal record of 74 hot dogs and buns in 10 minutes.
