I just love that you are such a good sport to do that sort of thing. Takes a good man and an even better friend to dress up like a hot dog and run a race! I think you are WAY cool and WAY fun for doing that. I am being totally serious.
Originally Posted By DAR Thanks for saying that. It was a lot a fun, everyone had a good time. My friend has been known to get to get me and other friends into other things around the park. I was even a member of the press at one point and got to partake in a sweet meal before hand.

Originally Posted By chickendumpling Member of the press??? Well, now I am intrigued. LOL. I'm all ears if you wanna tell that story sometime. Sounds like you and your friend have a lot of good times between ya.

I said I was just going to grab something at a concession stand. He told me forget that, gave me a pass, we both went in a ate. This was about a year ago.
Originally Posted By stitchcrazy Hey DAR, does are you from the Milwaukee area? I am! I'm so impressed you got to be the Hot Dog.

Too fun that you got to be in the race for the new sausage's first race too. My husband just got some seats for next I think week and they're in the 5th row on the first base side and the first thing I thought was - we'll be right at the Sausage Race Finish Line!
