one more time for me

Good girl and a better hot dog. I been meaning to show this one to you guys but smashed my typing hand re-racking weights after a romanian deadlift superset the other day. Starting to feel better but again nobody gives a fuck about anything but this hot dog.

I'm not joking. That's the best hot dog in Chicago. Better than Midlothian Country Club. Better than Harborside and Cog Hill. Better than Guaranteed Rate and most certainly better than whatever your old lady's slinging. 

At Lincoln Park Zoo no less? 

Probably/definitely not your ideal setting for encased meats. But again, take one fuckin look at this dog and tell me you know better. 

You don't. Nobody does. 

Lincoln Park Zoo fellas. Look it up when you get a chance. My experiences are broad and more recently depressing. If your old enough to recognize mange in a lion than you're probably too old to enjoy the zoo. But again, they weren't slinging that dog any time I was on the property. Otherwise I wouldn't be so easily satisfied hitting you guys with these close ups AGAIN

Boy do I love a good dog. And normally at this point I'd start power ranking them but that would be disrespectful to this iconic, drizzled, glazed, seeded, gorgeous vienna all beef hot dog heavy thru the garden. So we're not ranking anything else. We're just silently reflecting on the man at Lincoln Park Zoo that proudly serves this hot dog. 

Maybe some of you think $8 is too much but I think you're actually full of shit. All of you. Go stand in line for Costco Gas and tell me about bobblehead night you cheap fuck. Would $7.50 make you feel more like a man? 

$2 a bite is a fair price point given the quality, location and convenience. Simple math says $8 is the price you pay. So be it. 

Zoos on the other hand aren't so easy to breakdown. I was in Omaha this past summer at a magnificent zoo when I saw a college kid from LSU have a panic attack outside the elephant house. He had too many edibles. Marijuana maybe? But it seemed more like a deep reckoning of conscious. Could've been mushrooms. Either one, he was noticeably upset and uncomfortable. I asked a neaerby tiger camrade. Too many darugs. 

Or bad drugs? 

Again, either one - not a good choice for the zoo. I promise the monkeys won't be funny. They'll be sad and it will fuck with you. Those monkeys deserve better.

Anyways great dog at Lincoln Park Zoo

Shoutout to my buddy Paul. He's from Scotland and took the picture. If you don't know anyone from Scotland, I can help you right now. They're huge assholes and super funny and love to hang out and booze and they're awesome. They're so fucking mean. It's great. 

PS - Paul's a good name. I've always like a Paul
