Patrick Bertoletti and Miki Sudo are the winners of the 2024 edition of the historic Fourth of July Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest.

Bertoletti lifted the championship belt after gobbling up a combined 58 hot dogs, buns included, in 10 minutes. Miki Sudo set a new record for the women's category, previously at 50 hot dogs. She devoured 51 hot dogs in the same 10 minutes as Bertoletti.
