    At a Costco? $1.50. At any sort of other public entertainment venue? $10 for the shittiest hot dog you’ve ever seen.

      To be fair, Costco has acknowledged they lose money on the sausages (and rotisserie chickens) and use those cheaper items to draw in customers to buy other things they do make money on.

    As someone who just bought a 10-pack of Oscar Meyer hot dogs at the grocery store for $3.29, I had to click. The article is about hot dogs at sport stadiums. Frankly, I’m surprised they aren’t more expensive seeing as how venues price things astronomically high.

    To be painfully pedantic, I expect to pay nothing for a sports dog. I’ve had neither the means nor the desire to pay to pay to enjoy a game.
