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

 

Conjuring Up ‘Poe’try


While traveling with the Wienermobile, I was fortunate enough to learn about the life of one of the best writers in American History, Edgar Allan Poe. The site is a memorial and the original resting place of the beloved and haunted writer.

In honor of The Raven what is undoubtedly one of his most famous works, I have written a parody.


Rave-On
By Torey Toppings

Once upon a Wienermobile cheery, while I pondered, deep and dearly,
Over many a fresh and delicious volume of franks in the store,
While I nodded, just recapping, suddenly there came a snacking,
As of some one gently smacking, smacking by the fridge door.
“‘Tis an eater,” I smiled, “snacking at the fridge door -
A lover of hot dogs, and nothing more.”

  1. I love Edgar Allen Poe. His poetry made soggy, dreary days mysterious and edgy.
