This is more TV than the contest, but does the WWL really care so little that they will show the result of the event during a tape-delay broadcast of said event?

Yes, I know it happens all the time. But it just seems to me like that's thumbing their nose at the audience.
 
Chestnut almost equaled today's winner in half the time at his Fort Bliss event - of course vegan hot dogs go down easier.

Since the eating competition began in 1972, every winner of Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest has been a man or a woman – until now, with this year’s title going to a 6.75” hot dog that lodged itself in the throat of competitive eating rookie Anthony Diletti, 48, of Staten Island, and suffocated him to death before he was able to finish it. As Diletti’s very first hot dog of the event, this stunning upset was determined by a rare stipulation in the eating contest’s official rulebook, which states that if “a Nathan’s Famous hot dog holds a competitor’s score to zero, the contest is immediately concluded, and said hot dog is deemed victor.”
