Notably absent again this year is chief rival Takeru Kobayashi, who held the world record for nearly six years. He was arrested last year for storming the stage --- after being banned for refusing to sign an exclusive contract with Major League Eating, the competitive eating equivalent of the NFL.

Unclear if TK still has his red/yellow (ketchup/mustard) hair colouring.
