The Best Hot Dogs are not always found at the Local Hot Dog Stand

Today you can find some of the best and famous Hot Dogs and Chili Dogs at Baseball Parks, Football Stadiums, Ice Hockey Arenas, Little League Games, Nascar Events, Soccer Games. Almost any indoor or outdoor event Craft Fairs, Art Festivals, Music events, Public Parks, Play Grounds and I'll bet you will find Hot Dogs in Bill and Hilary Clinton home as well. You might also find some Hot Dogs at John and Cindy McCain home. I don't know about Barack and Michelle Obama, but I think they must love Hot Dogs as well. At a lot of these events you’ll also fine Politics and fine Beer and Wines from all around the world as well as a old style soft drinks and new specialty soda pop as well. All of these drinks go great with any type of Hot Dog.
