Last year, the three-day tournament hosted 70 teams and was the most successful fundraising years for the hosts of the event, the Montana Tech “M” club. However, due to the size of the event, law enforcement faced difficulties with crowd control (in 2014, three men were arrested for public urination at Stodden Park, where the tournament will be hosted again this year).

Montana Tech’s annual Hot Dog Eating Contest was a success on Wednesday, October 5th in the SUB. At 1 PM, spectators and participants congregated in the Marcus Daily to take shelter from the blustery afternoon and enjoy day three of Homecoming Week festivities.
