Hot dog madness is hitting South Street

POSTED: Thursday, July 5, 2012, 4:27 PM

July 23 is National Hot Dog Day, but this year the celebrations are getting started a little early with a full five days of encased meat excitement. This year's events include a Wienermobile birthday party, a night of dog-centric history and art from local hot dog portraitist Hawk Krall at Hot Diggity, and tours of noteworthy hot dog hawkers.

The tour includes plenty of memorable dogs, old timers like Texas Wieners, Jimmy John's, Levi's, Moes, and Holyland, home of the only in Philly hot dog hoagie along with hot dog new kids like Underdogs and Yo Dog.

The coordinators of this year's Hot Dog Days are looking for more tube steak lovin' participants to join the fun so if you'd like to be a part of this year's Dog Days shoot 'em an email.
