Brockton Rox To Sell Worlds Most Expensive $80 Foot Long Hot Dog. Wait. What?


The Boston Channel.com
BOSTON -- You expect to pay a little more for food and beers at a baseball park -- but $80 for a foot-long hot dog? The Brockton Rox are trying to set a new Guinness World Record with what could be the world's most expensive hot dog, according to The Enterprise. The McMullen is a half-pound, all-beef hot dog rolled in truffle oil that's coated with porcini dust and sprinkled with white truffle shavings, the newspaper reported. It's then topped with dollops of creme fraiche and caviar. This hot dog comes nestled in a special roll that is made by a Cape Cod-based bakery. The delicacy goes on sale when the Rox host Newark to coincide with National Hot Dog Day, and it will become a permanent fixture on the menu. Anyone interested in shelling out the big bucks for a hot dog needs to give the park 24-hour notice in case the team needs to ship in any ingredients. The current Guinness record holder in the category is the Foot Long Haute Dog, which is sold for $69 at Serendipity 3 in New York.


The only thing worse than driving into Brockton is driving into Brockton and buying an $80 hot dog.  Is Brocktion kidding me with this shit? They will be lucky if they sell more than 2 of these things and clearly the ball park agrees with me. "Anyone interested in shelling out the big bucks for a hot dog needs to give the park 24-hour notice in case the team needs to ship in any ingredients." So Massholes who want in on this ripoff of a deal have to call in thier hot dog order? Have you ever heard of this shit before? Good luck with that Brockton Rox.


Oh wait! They're playing Newark?!? Oh then that changes everything. Nothing like 2 of the greatest cities in the world coming together to battle it out on the old dirt diamond. 


As bad as Brockton is it can't hold a candle to Newark. When you live in NJ people look at you dead in the eye and tell you to lock your car doors and don't drive through certain areas at night.  When you chuckle afterwards waiting for the punch line they just stare right back stone cold. Shits no joke brah.You want to live or you want to die?
