Are you hungry? If you’re craving hot dogs this July Fourth, check out the Nathan’s Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest. Every year on July 4, the best competitive eaters in the world flock to Coney Island near Brooklyn, New York, to inhale hot dogs at a lightning pace. Besides bragging rights, the male winner wins a mustard-yellow belt, and the female winner earns a pink belt.

In news that shook the competitive eating world to its core, 16-time champion Joey Chestnut will not compete in this year’s contest. Because of his sponsorship deal with Impossible Foods, Chestnut has been banned from the 2024 competition. Chestnut had won eight straight competitions dating back to 2016. Miki Sudo is the two-time defending champion for females.

Where to watch Ravens vs. Chiefs in 2024 NFL Kickoff Game
Patrick Mahomes runs with a ball on the field.

The first Thursday of September means one thing: the NFL is back. After a long offseason, the NFL returns with the 2024 NFL Kickoff Game. Per tradition, the defending Super Bowl champion gets to play in the NFL's opening night game. This year, that honor belongs to the Kansas City Chiefs. Before kickoff, the Chiefs will reveal their new Super Bowl banner.

After the pregame festivities, the Chiefs will play Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens. The game is a rematch of the last season's AFC Championship, which the Chiefs won by a score of 17-10. Last season, the Chiefs played in the 2023 Kickoff Game and lost to the Detroit Lions 21-20.

How to watch WWE Bash in Berlin 2024: start time, live stream, matches

Following SummerSlam, the WWE takes its show to Europe for the next Premium Live Event (PLE), WWE Bash in Berlin. It will also be the first livestreaming WWE event in Germany. Since May, the WWE has run five of its last six PLEs outside the U.S., a strong sign of the company's expansion to new markets under TKO.

One match to focus on is the World Heavyweight Championship between Gunther and Randy Orton. Gunther defeated Damian Priest for the title at SummerSlam. Born in Austria, Gunther should have the home crowd advantage in Germany. However, Orton remains one of the most popular wrestlers in the company, and "The Viper" will do everything in his power to land an RKO and become a 15-time world champion.
When and where is WWE Bash in Berlin 2024?
WWE Bash in Berlin starts at 1 p.m. ET/10 a.m. PT on Saturday, August 31. The event will be held inside the Uber Arena in Berlin, Germany.
