Free Kobayashi

Today was the 95th annual Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest, which is held every year on July 4th..the reining champion Joey Chestnut walked away with the crown once again this year..but, the real story was Takeru Kobayashi, arguably the best eater in the world and 6 time winner of the contest, not competing this year due to some kind of contractual issue with Major League Eating..but the real real story was Kobayashi jumping on stage today to protest the fact that he was not allowed to participate in the event and being arrested and charged for resisting arrest, trespassing and obstructing governmental administration by the NYPD..crazy shit.
