Competitive eater Joey Chestnut just set a record for eating chicken fingers.

He did it at the new Raising Cane’s location on the Las Vegas Strip as the fast food chain celebrates National Chicken Finger Day.

The 15-time hot dog eating champion devoured 44 chicken fingers in five minutes.

Chestnut says he didn’t reach his ultimate goal, which would have been 50 chicken fingers, but he wants to return and break his record.
