Nathan's Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest - WinStar Casino - Thackerville, OK

Location: Thackerville, OK
Date: 06-13-2010
Winner: Sean Gordon

Sean "Flash" Gordon was crowned champion of the Nathan's qualifier after eating 23.5 Nathan's hot dogs and buns at WinStar World Casino in Thackerville, OK Sunday afternoon. Gordon, who sat atop the NF Wild Card standings entering the contest, narrowly edged Crazy Legs Conti by a half a hot dog. Crazy Legs, seeking his ninth consecutive trip to Coney Island on July 4th, made a surge at the 8 and a half minute mark, but couldn't close the gap quick enough over the final 90 seconds.

In third place with 20.5 HDBs was #18-ranked Adrian Morgan who made the drive from Baton Rouge. David Solomon finished fourth with 15 HDBs and Nate Biller, eating just a short drive from his hometown of Witchita Falls, TX, ate 14.5 in his 2010 Nathan's debut.

With Gordon's win, Allen "Shredder" Goldstein moves to the top of the Wild Card standings with his 28.75 HDB performance in Foxboro on May 8.
