The Wienermobile is back in our neighborhood!--parked in its "customary" location in front of the Embassy Suites.

The Wienermobile

The last time it was here, it stuck around for about a week and we saw it every day on our way home from work. Which lead to the discussion this evening: What does the Wienermobile really do?

I guessed it makes appearances at events, like state fairs. And that it drives around a lot just to be seen. Yep, that's pretty much it:

A typical day for a Hotdogger includes early morning appearances on local TV stations followed by two public "meet and greet" events, each lasting about three hours. These events include appearances at county fairs, store openings, sports venues, and a variety of other special events. A professional Hotdogger can expect to spread Wienermobile good cheer at 500 scheduled events on a typical year-long tour of duty.

There are six Wienermobiles with a total crew of 12 "hotdoggers" (two hotdoggers per wiener). Everything you ever wanted to know about the Wienermobile is here.
