On the road with the Weinermobile
Hot dog, that was fun!
I just stepped off the Weinermobile, after a franktastic, hour-long cruise around town.
The 27-foot long hotdog-shaped vehicle is in Austin recruiting future “hotdoggers,” the perky, hotdog-pun spewing drivers who travel around the country handing out Weiner whistles and making people smile.
They’ll be in Room 220 of Burdine Hall at the University of Texas at 5:30 p.m. next Tuesday, Feb. 16, looking for recruits.
It’s a job to be relished! Do you cut the mustard? (Help me, I can’t stop!)
We motored up and down Congress Avenue, then spun through the UT campus. I’ve never seen so many people whip out their cell phones to snap pictures.
The Weinermobile’s drivers, Laura Moller and Alison Kwong, know every hotdog pun in the book. (There are wurst things to know, I suppose.)
What does the interior look like, you ask? It’s drenched in yellow, with little embroidered Weinermobiles on the seatbacks. The carpet looks like someone squirted mustard on it. And there’s a pop-up “bunroof.” It’s got six bucket seats, a hotdog-shaped glovebox, cruise control and a GPS unit.
It gets pretty good smileage, but I doubt the mileage is all that great.
Ketchup with you later!
