The San Francisco Hot Dog Eating Contest<\/a> after the Annual Fourth of July Pub Crawl is one of our favorite events of the year! Over 400 people came to Union Street to enjoy cheap drinks, music and dancing and everyone gathered at Bar None to watch our 5 contenders battle it out for the title of San Francisco Hot Dog Eating Champion.<\/p>\n\n\n

Each participant was given a plate of 15 hot dogs and a bucket of water with 10 minutes to finish as many as possible. The Winner, Andrew Gutierrez accomplished the feat in just a little over 7 minutes and became the champion for the THIRD YEAR IN A ROW! Andrew received $100 Cash, a sweet trophy, a hat and a pair of shorts from Chubbies<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n
