You know what’s Crazy? I’ll tell you what’s Crazy!™
A hot dog that costs you $69.
I didn’t say 69-hot dogs for $69.00. I didn’t say an actual four legged dog that is hot for $69.00. I said a freaking sack of third class meat shoved in a sheath and sold as if it’s meat-gold.
Now that is crazy!
DATELINE: Manhattan
This Hot Dog is billed as the World’s Most Expensive tube sandwich ever sold.
For $69-dollars, I would hope so.
A hot dog is little more than a condom stuffed with mice excrement and rat hair? Is that worth $69?
According to the New York Daily News; the $69 dollar dog is sold at the trendy; Serendipity 3 restaurant.
Not surprisingly, this eatery is also the world record holder for the most expensive ice-cream sundae ($1,000) and the largest hot chocolate (four gallons, 15 liters). Talk about excessive excess.
What’s next? biggest goiter? Moistest boil? Most lard consumed in a single sitting?
Trudy Tant, 49, of South Carolina, helped cement the record, forking out $69 for the foot-long designer dog.
Guinness World Records official Kimberly Patrick declared the record after watching Tant pay for the frankfurter, which came slathered in truffle oil, truffle butter, duck foie gras, Dijon mustard, Vidalia onions and ketchup on a salted pretzel bed.
“It was great. Great flavor,” Tant said, who was approached to be part of the record attempt after wandering past the restaurant Friday.
Hey Trudy, how bout licking a marathon runner’s underarm. It’s a steal at only $81.00
such a deal!
In today’s economy who in their right mind would pay $69.00 for a hot dog? Ok it has truffle this and duck foie gras, whatever the hell that is. But come on. A pig with lipstick is still a pig right?
This is why the rest of the world hates us.
How do you think starving kids in Zimbabwe would react to a single hot dog selling for 69-dollars?
Unicef says 10 dollars will feed an entire village for a month. Can you imagine how much grain and rice Trudy could have purchased if she just pushed away the $69-dollar hot dog and bought life sustaining provisions for starving people.
Nice choice Trudy.
I think this story is an abomination. If I had the chance, I would hire a Sabret hot dog vendor to park right outside the restaurant’s door and sell hot dogs for .69 cents.
I would use all the money generated to buy bricks and then I would throw those bricks through the Serendipity’s front window.
I would get the entire cast of Nathan’s Hot Dog eating contest to consume .69 cent hot dogs, 50 of them. Then all at once stick their finger down their collective throats and vomit a river of processed semi-digested meat right onto the sidewalk in front of the restaurant.
I would plant a flag in the pile of steaming goo that reads: EAT THIS SERENDIPITY.
Love the Crazy Dept.
Deeee-licious!
