Madison Barone, disqualified at the Hotdog match of the Nathan on Friday, July 4 because she could not keep the food, said she feels no shame about what happened.
‘No,’ ‘Barone, 24, told USA Today Sports three days after the game at Coney Island, NY’ It was very discreet. All part of the sport. ” ‘
Barone, who lives in Manville, New Jersey, debuted her debut during the 2025 match. Overshadowed by people like Joey Chestnut and women’s champion Miki Sudo, she still managed to get known for the breaking of the competition rules.
It started with eating nine hot dogs and sandwiches by the time that the 10 -minute game ended. Then, before the top five of finishers were announced, she started to feel uncomfortable and found a garbage can, according to Barone.
“As soon as I came out of the stage and everything came, it didn’t agree as if I was sick,” she said. “It was more power. It was more of my body that it just let go.
“And I had something like that, oh man, everyone saw that. Now I am disqualified.”
Indeed, she was.
“Mrs Barone experienced Drifts in violation of swallowing after the game, but before the conclusion of presentations and the granting of places,” Sam Barclay, director of operations at Major League Eating, told USA Today Sports. “Due to Major League -eating rules, it comes into force in violation of swallowing before the end of the event, including presentations and the award of prices, results in a DQ.”
George Shea, who has served as a competition broadcaster since 1991, said that he was not aware of such an incident that has since taken place at Nathan.
Barone, who was a wildcard participant after she was second in a qualification, said she hopes to compete with Nathan next year.
“If I do that,” she said, “it will be the biggest comeback ever.”
