If Joey Chestnut wins Nathan's Hotdog Competition tomorrow, he could join the Mount Rushmore of Championship Athletes competing injured.  Who will forget Michael Jordan and his infamous flu game?  Or Curt Schilling pitching for Boston in a bloody sock?  Or even Tiger Woods winning the U.S. Open on a broken leg?

All eyes will be on Joey Chestnut tomorrow, as many question whether this is the biggest challenge of his career.  For the first time ever, Chestnut will be competitive eating with a severe injury, after an unfortunate accident ruptured his tendon, that will force him to eat on crutches.  

Do You Believe In Miracles?

However, nothing may be more miraculous than a severely injured man eating over 70 hotdogs on hobbled legs.  Few realize the endurance and skill it takes to be successful in competitive eating, which can take months of both mental and physical training.  If Chestnut can pull off another Hotdog Eating Championship win, he could easily be mentioned in the same breath as Schilling, Woods, and yes... even Michael Jordan.

If we dive in even deeper, it could even be argued that Chestnut's Mustard Belts are more impressive than Jordan's six basketball titles with the Chicago Bulls.  With another win, Joey's 15 Hotdog Eating Championships would far surpass Jordan's 6 Basketball Championships.  Some could even argue that Jordan won his Championships in a team sport, while Chestnut had to win his Mustard Belts alone.

The Legacy Grows

However, that's a conversation saved for another day, as we wait for tomorrow's 2022 Nathan's Hotdog Eating Competition.  If Chestnut can win while injured, he will definitely be added to the "Mount Rushmore of Injured Athletes Winning a Title".

Chestnut will going for his 7th straight win, and 15th win overall, which will add to his illustrious collection of Mustard Belts.  Regardless the outcome, he is already the undisputed leader in Competitive Eating Hot Dog competitions, and nobody else comes even close.

At night, you can see the neon lights beckoning from a distance, creating a shining aura against the mountain landscape.  Although it's hidden away in the lush trees, Lucky Zou Zou is only a block away from the Danjin Denggong LRT Train Station (淡金鄧公站).

In the evening hours, as you look through the train's windows, you can see the glowing lights ricochet off the shop rooftops like a radiant rainbow.  It's really an amazing sight.

Bird Aviary

In addition to the great food, they also have a small bird aviary, with a number of different birds, and from time to time, a variety of other animals as well.  More recently, they added fish to the pond, which is frequented by a shy turtle who often hides in his shell.  As would be expected, the aviary lured in many wild, yet domesticated cats to the area.  At Lucky Zou Zou, people will really feel at one with nature.   

With delicious food, a variety of alcoholic beverages, and a naturistic atmosphere, it contains all the right elements for an intimate night with that special someone.  Romance is always in the air at Lucky Zou Zou.

Korean artists EXN (을씨년) and lIlBOI (릴보이) recently released the best hamburger song of 2022, a funky number that encapluates the true essence of the Gen Z era, a true love-hate relationship between a girl and her hamburger.  

Who Are They?

EXN (을씨년), born Joo Hee-won (주희원) is a South Korean rapper who debuted under Unusual Sound in 2021.¹¹  

Whiel Lil Boi (릴보이; stylized as lIlBOI), born Oh Seung-taek (오승택) is a South Korean rapper who debuted under GRDL as a member of Geeks in 2011. He later debuted as a solo artist in 2018.¹²  

Hamburger Song

On the outside, the song itself sounds like an inner battle between a woman and her love of hamburgers.  However, when you dive deeper into the lyrics, it becomes clear that it could represent any type of social connection, one where love and hate co-exist side by side.  That's why the track is so relatable.  Who hasn't experienced those kind of feelings and emotions at some point in life?  

This song could easily be an anthem for all love-hate relationships, one that is shared by people of every identity, whether it's flesh and blood or just a burger.  Yet, in all honesty, and partially due to our never-ending devotion for sandwiches both big and small, we truly hope her and the hamburger ride bilissfuly into the sunset together.  

Sandwich is life.  Sandwich is forever.  

Regardless of its meaning, one thing is certain, it's easily the best Hamburger song of the year!

Let's be honest, it's hard to place Sloppy Joe's in any specific category.  They define themselves as upcomers in the New Wave Of Classic Rock, yet they cover songs by Paul Anka, Billy Ocean, and Tom Jones.  This is not your typical Hard Rock Band.  

However, while Sloppy Joe's pays homage to the classics, many of their best songs are original, fast-paced, day-tripping, high adrenaline rockers.  Tracks such as Devil's Music, The Journey, and Mirror are so intense, they will set your speakers on fire.    

In order to understand the range and depth of Sloppy Joe's music, Last Sandwich decided to rank the Top 25 Songs By Sloppy Joe's, and then display it in the chart below.  We've also included a column which shows the original singer of each cover song.

The band's most recent album is titled "Devil's Music", and contains mostly hard rocking numbers set to max on the volume dial.  However, one of the best songs is a power balled called "Means So Much".

Means So Much by Sloppy Joe's



One of Sloppy Joe's best covers is an amped up version of Don Gibson's Country Music Hit, "Lonesome Number One".   A classic from 1961, you start to realize that Sloppy Joe's may be a rock band that even a Grandmother could love.

Just for some comparison, please listen to Gibson's original Country Western version.

Another great cover, which sounds even better than the Don William's original, is Sloppy Joe's version of "Some Broken Hearts Never Mend".

Basketball legend Allen Iverson once told his fans they could always say "my man is solidified" after he was enshrined into the NBA Hall Of Fame.  When it comes to the Rap Game, MC Hotdog is "solidified" as they come.    

In some ways, the two global icons have a lot in common.  Iverson was the underdog, the overachiever, the misunderstood; and had the most loyal fans in the NBA.  Much like Iverson, MC Hotdog is fighting his own battles, as his newest music videos are slowly scraping and clawing up the Youtube Trending charts. 

With new MVs such as Sugar Mommy (阿姨), Lab Rats (白老鼠), and They Ain’t Rappers At All (他們根本不是Rapper), MC Hotdog is showing that he's still at the top of his game.  

So, in order to erase any future doubts, Last Sandwich wants to present this esteemed rapper a special award.  We would like to officially recognize MC HotDog (熱狗) as "Sandwich Rock Solidified".  From this day forward, let there be no question who is the G.O.A.T. of Taiwanese Rap.  

MC Hotdog fans around the world can now say, "my man is sandwich rock solidified."
