He has done it again, folks.

Joey Chestnut took home the belt by eating 71 hot dogs -- or sandwiches -- in 10 minutes Thursday at the 2019 Nathan's Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest in Coney Island. The Bay Area native, who lives in San Jose, now has a whopping 12 titles at the event. 

He's been crowned the champion in four straight years now. Thursday's count of 71 hot dogs was three off his record of 74.
