Notorious BOB went through 8 plates of Nathans hotdogs In Atlantic City like a farm animal that hadn't been fed in months to secure his 5th consecutive trip to Coney Island. Bob set an all time NJ record with 40. Basically another Shout rout if you want to call it that with Jim Reeves finishing a not so close 2nd with 25. A disappointed Pat from Moonachie finished 3rd with 24.5. George Shea seemed content in announcing the first second and third place finishers until Allen Goldstein reminded him that he came in 4th. with 23. Rising superstar 25yr old Brian "dudlight" Dudzinski making his debut in the Nathans circuit ate 20 finishing in a tie for 5th with US Male . Larell Marie Mele who improves with each contest out ate her chauffeur and eating buddy Russ Keeler(13.5) finishing with a personal best of 15.25 . besting Beautifulbrian's 15 at Shea Stadium in 2008 . Brian Subich and Steakbellie also did well finishing with 17 apiece. As was the case last year , the AC hotdogs were uncooked and ungrilled to perfection which became self evident as some of the contestants heaved them up immediately after consumption. Larell Marie's home town cheering section (watch video below) was the key vocal point in the contest as a mesmerized George Shea was not only impressed with her fans but her beauty and grace as she stuffed down one dog after another without a smile.Pat Bertoletti was in town to root on Bob Shoudt and then head over to Jims Steakhouse to break Shoudts record of 13 Cheesesteaks . George Shea proved once again that he is the master of all masters convincing the crowd that Bert Parks and Billy Graham have nothing on him
