Pip-pip! Cheerio! Stiff upper lip! Ma-lahhhkey and all that rot!
Such are the words that we, The Guys, expect you to be speaking once you’ve purchased the $80 hot dog. Yes, right-o, a Massachusetts based minor league baseball team, the Brockton Rox, will be serving said colonic disaster in a scant 4 day, all in hope of winning a place in the Guinness World Records. Spot-on.
So, outside of a lessened amount of dignity and increased time spent on the club’s porcelain high-seat, what does $80 get you? It gets a foot-long, 8 ounce hot dog, deep-fried, doused in truffle oil and coated in porcini dust. I say, it’s got quite a mushroom pedigree. Along with that, it’s topped with white truffle shavings, crème fraiche, caviar and fresh roe. And still, $80 lighter. Monocle and top hat not included.
