Extra marks for being a Fenway Frank but really nothing to make it stand out |
| Jacobs Field |
B- |
Dog was good but no onions |
| Comerica Park |

Aggressive vendor delivered sub-par dog (Lesson learned: never buy a dog
from a vendor in the stands - the dogs are not as fresh and you have to use
the condiments in the foil packages) |

Good quality dog with good condiments |
| Camden Yards |
B |
Dollar dog night! Good condiments |
| Great American Ball Park |
A+ |
Short dog with Skyline Chili is unbeatable |
| Turner Field |
A- |
Hot dog stand in the fan area behind center field had 18(?) different kinds
of dogs. I had a Georgia Dog with coleslaw and Vidalia onion relish
that was excellent. Max had the Southwest Dog with Chili, Cheese and
Jalapenos which he really liked. |

Nothing memorable |

I thought the flavor of the dogs was lacking but Pattie was impressed that
they were hot |
| Pacific Bell Park |
B+ |
The dogs were fair but they got the plus for having sauerkraut and grilled
onions |
| Network Associates Coliseum |
A- |
Excellent dogs that had a nice smoky flavor. Dogs are from Miller.
Sauerkraut, onions, relish, ketchup and mustard were available as
condiments. |
| Safeco Field |
B |
Good dogs, though a little light on flavor, but another good condiment park
with onions, relish, ketchup, mustard and sauerkraut. |
| Coors Field |
A- |
Three kinds of dogs here - a Super Dog (which is a regular hot dog), a
Kosher Dog and the World Famous Rockies Dog (a foot long with extra
condiments. I tried both the Super Dog and the World Famous Rockies
Dog with grilled onions and peppers. (I skipped the sauerkraut.)
The dogs had a good smoked flavor and the buns were substantial and may have
been lightly toasted. |
| Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome |
B+ |
Extra fat dog with sesame seed bun (!). Dog is made by Hormel, which
is local. The dog was tasty and they had sauerkraut as well as
mustard, ketchup and onions. |
| Busch Stadium |
A- |
Grilled Kosher dog was excellent with a slight crunch from the grilling.
Grilled onions were a nice addition as was the sesame seed bun. |
| Kaufman Stadium |
C |
The dogs were ok but only ketchup and mustard are available as condiments.
Better sausages were available but the dogs could use an upgrade. |
| Yankee Stadium |
C- |
The dogs were only fair and the only condiments available are in the foil
packages. See Comerica for my feelings about the foil packages. |
|
Wrigley Field |
B- |
The standard stadium dog is good but nothing special. There are a
couple of vendors claiming to sell a "Chicago Style" dog but they only offer
a poor imitation. Could have gotten an A+ with a true Chicago dog. |
