The above features photographs taken at the Weigh In which took place in Manhattan
almost exactly 24 hours prior to the actual eating contest itself.
You can see a group photo of some of the contestants as well as individual pics of
Takeru Kobayashi and Joey Chestnut.

At this event there was live entertainment.

On hand was live music which entertained the big crowds which eventually
reached a number beyond 25,000 according to the local police department.

The throngs of people eventually numbered beyond 25,000 according to local police.

Yours truly had the pleasure of meeting some of the contestants at the weigh in and they all quite the amiable bunch. Nice, humble folks who wanna have fun through this entire event. One question I repeatedly asked was "How do they prepare...as in, what might they eat the day before?" 'and usually the answer made it clear as to how they simply lived a regular day prior to the contest itself. That is, most of them said this except for Takeru Kobayashi who stated how he wasn't sure if he'd be eating at all.

Well, once the contest was over I had a chance to yell a question, "What he'd eaten the night before?" 'and his answer was nothing. He hadn't eaten at all. So, there you have it. This young Japanese fella who's far from scrawny despite appearances divulged just one of what I'm sure are a number of secrets that've led him to championship after championship.
