Welcome to the hot dog blog π!Β A new feature here at Tales From The Bleachers because (obvious alert) no visit to a baseball park, stadium or field would be complete without a hot dog am I right? So as we travel the 2020 college baseball circuit following the #Miamiredhawks and #SanFranciscoDons this season, we’ll also be putting the dogs to the test. I won’t take this space to suggest HOW you should eat your dog (no ketchup!) but rather provide a public service should you find yourself at any of the friendly confines we have the privilege of visiting this season. Our opinion is really all that matters, because it’s our hot dog blog – but we’d love to hear from you if you have a winner, a can’t miss combo of condiments, a ball field dog that is not to be missed.
We have parameters – I mean we’re not out here winging it – here they are:
- Price
- Color
- Taste
- Texture
- Snap
- Bun quality
Outstanding experiences awarded weiner rating from 1-5 with five suggesting it’s worth a visit πππππ. If our experience is pure sadness, one dog: π. Hold on to your buns, here we go…
HOT DOG 1
The park is Olsen Field at Bluebell Park. Home of the Texas A&M Aggies, College Station Texas.
Wiener rating: π
Price: $7
Color: brownish
Taste: old
Texture: dry
Snap: result of oldness
Bun: stale
Comments: The Aggies are really phoning this in. This dog seemed to be brought out from the (very late) night before. I mean is this what passes for a hot dog in the pork-loving, bbq-bragging lone star state? You should be ashamed of yourselves. Suggestion: spend as much time on your hot dogs as your fans spend prepping toΒ heckle the visiting team.
