Ok, so you probably have no idea who a Hotdogger is and what a Hotdogger does.

Well, it’s one of us, the guys and gals who drive the Wienermobile, criss-crossing the country, looking for bridges that are high enough to drive under so we don’t get stuck . We thought it was only fair that you get to see the inside of the Wienermobile – including the people driving it. So, that’s why we created this blog. We hope you enjoy reading our stories and experiencing what being a Hotdogger is all about. We appreciate every wave we receive on the road and are thrilled you’re reading and commenting here.

We’ll try to respond if we can… (after all, there’s a lot of ground to cover). – The Hotdoggers

The Birthplace of Walmart!

When the Wienermobile heard that the very first Wal-Mart was in Bentonville, AR we had to go see it.  Walton’s five and dime was the very first general store operated by Sam Walton which would later grow into Wal-Mart.  Today Walton’s five and dime in Bentonville, AR serves as Wal-Mart’s museum.  I had a bun of fun learning about Walmart’s rich history.  Below I included a photo of me shaking the hand of Sam Walton (Large cutout of Sam Walton)!!!

Fiesta brings Camel, Donkey, Sheep and Goats for everyone to pet!!!

The Wienermobile stopped by a Fiesta Grocery store for one of their festivals.  It was a bun of fun!  They had a wide variety of animals in their petting zoo.  I befriended a camel which was a first for me.

Cheesin’ with the National Guard Chopper

At a parade in White Hall, AR is where I first encountered the National Guard Chopper float!  It was a very impressive bike.  I sat behind the handle bars of the chopper and imagined haulin’ buns, however reality set in when I noticed I was encased in a bullet proof glass trailer.

Hotdoggin with the KU mascot

The Wienermobile stopped at the beautiful Kansas University.  While at the KU campus I met up with Big Jay the Universities mascot and he gave me a VIP tour.  I was able to see where all the behind the scene ‘mascot’ operations take place.  Big Jay also let me hold his offical game jersey and ride around on his gigantic tricycle.  Oversized modes of transportation are my favorite!!!

Cirque du Soleil linked like franks

While driving the Wienermobile past the Toyota Center in Houston, TX I saw that Cirque du Soleil was in town.  I of course had to ketchup with the ticket office and then enjoyed the show.  During the show many of the performers were connected by arms and legs and it looked just like linked sausages!!!  It’s amazing the influence hot dogs have on the world.

Relishing Galveston Beach, TX

Guac’ and I decided that the Wienermobile needed to lightly toast its bun.  So we took it to Galveston Beach, TX and got a little sun ourselves.  The white sand beaches were beautiful and a must stop if you relish beach time.

Georgia Aquarium has the best jellyfish

The Wienermobile made an unexpected trip to the Georgia Aquarium and had a doggone good time!  The Georgia Aquarium is known for its saltwater aquarium.  But what melted my cheddar was the jellyfish tank and the whale slide.

Monkeying around at Zoo Atlanta

Guac’ and I were cruising in the Wienermobile and had to stop at Zoo Atlanta.  If you enjoy animals as much as we do, you are gonna love Zoo Atlanta!  They have a jumbo sized primate exhibit and the kangaroos inspire you to speak in an Australian accent.  Put another bun length wiener on the barbie mate!

Anonymous man makes OHIWISH’s Day!

While driving the Wienermobile through Oklahoma we came to a toll road.  When it was our turn to pay the toll we were informed that indeed the man in front of us had paid it.  He was a huge fan of the Wienermobile and wanted to do something nice for his favorite 27 foot bun of fun.  I would like to give a formal frank you to the gracious anonymous man!
