At long last I got to see it! 😁

After waiting for years and years I can FINALLY scratch this off my bucket list!

:clap::2thumbs::congrats::roflblack: Did you get to rip up the tar with that BEAST!!!

 

[safecracker]

When I was stationed in South Carolina, I saw one at Myrtle Beach. This was in 1984.

Monstrosity may be a better description of it! It was set up at the HyVee grocery store in Macomb, IL about a week ago. I just never believed it was an actual operating vehicle.

The funniest thing was the guy who walked out of the store and started singing the Oscar Mayer jingle, much to the chagrin of his wife and kids.

We used to live in Madison WI, the home of Oscar Meyer back in the 70's. Don't know if they are still there???

Saw the actual weiner mobile when we moved to Ft. Wayne, IN a few years later.

And thanks, now you have me humming the darn jingle. :roflblack:

Oscar Meyer closed in Madison couple of years ago. They are now starting to rent parts of the building. I've been in the newer weiner mobile.

You are welcomehyea: Just a friendly reminder; they had a jingle for their bologna, too! "My bologna has a first name, it's O-S-C-A-R. My bologna has a second name, it's M-A-Y-E-R."

Just in case you forgot!:joke: Again, you're welcome!

I wonder how many Wienermobiles they have?

 

[Gwolf]

There is 6 operating Weinermobiles now. Here is a link for their tour schedule if you really want to see one.

Some of the older ones have been retired and now live in various museums across the country.

They are real, operating highway vehicles. I was working at a gas station back in the 60s and one came in to fill up with gas.

 

[Raprider]

They were hiring drivers a year or 2 back...my wife sent me the application...not sure if she thought I'd be happier getting free hot dogs and singing the theme song all day, or if she'd be happier telling her friends what I did for a living :roflblack:

I tried to apply for the job and said at 60 I was to old. They want younger drivers I guess.

Too old?:cus: I've been eating hot dogs for almost 70 years. All they're going to get today is some Millennial vegetarian that will be texting while driving.

I changed the oil in one back when I was a teenager @ Jiffy Lube, Im 53 now!

Have Fun!!!

Latrobe Air show July 2018

 

[Raknid]

Saw one on the road several years back. It is one thing to see it parked at a fair or event - a whole other thing to see a 15' wiener roll down a four lane road toward you at speed!

Probably needs to be changed again by now :roflblack:
