DEAD WRONG! HOW ARE YOU GOING TO TREAT THE HOT DOG CHAMP LIKE THAT?

Herculean hot dog eater Takeru Kobayashi was released from jail Monday morning and said he felt empty inside.

"I'm really hungry. I wanted to eat hot dogs," he said as he walked out of Brooklyn Criminal Court after being arraigned on charges of storming the stage at the Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest in Coney Island Sunday.

Kobayashi, 32, was released without bail on charges of trespassing, resisting arrest and obstructing governmental administration.

The one-time champion said he'd only been able to munch on a bologna sandwich and a glass of milk while in central booking following his arrest.

Kobayashi was barred from competing this year following a contract dispute with the event's organizers.

His absence left the door wide-open for his arch nemesis, Joey Chestnut, to storm to his fourth consecutive title with 54 dogs in 10 minutes.

Still wearing a "Free Kobi" T-shirt as he left court, Kobayashi said he'd only tried to get on stage to congratulate "his buddies" and to "prove himself."

Event organizer Richard Shea said he hoped Kobayashi was able to sort out his legal troubles, but was "disappointed" in his shenanigans.

"I feel badly for everyone who worked so hard that the story today is all about this disruption," he said.
