Of course $1 hot dog night at the Phillies game turned into a giant food fight

I don’t envy anybody in advertising and marketing for a Philadelphia sports activities group who has to consider a promotional night time. The largest concern for many groups could be “will individuals like this?” whereas in Philly there needs to be very actual forethought given to “will individuals throw these?”

Effectively, on Tuesday it was the coveted $1 Scorching Canine Evening for the Phillies, and … properly.

You possibly can very clearly hear somebody say “it’s a meals struggle,” with dozens of scorching canine flying within the stands. With the canine solely being $1 it was simply price it for some individuals to replenish on throwable sausages, and this went on for some time.

One other video, nearer to the motion, provides you an actual sense of the way it was.

This appears pleasant, and to be sincere a bit benign. This was much less of a malicious meals struggle, and extra of an enormous stadium-wide pot luck — assuming everybody introduced scorching canine. Loads of followers had been merely throwing wrapped canine from one part to one another, feeding their fellow fan for a paltry quantity.

The one draw back was stocking up on extra throwables — which took ceaselessly.

By no means change, Philadelphia.
