hot dogs

Once you make your own, nothing else compares

Ummm I am no Cub Fan but Anheuser Busch has not owned the Cardinals for 20 years. So I really don't think they are supporting the Cardinals.

Well, A-B pays for the naming rights to the Cardinals stadium - similarly to Miller paying money that supports the Brewers (Miller Field), and Coors to the Rockies! (and I don't think "competitors" brands are sold at any of those fields -- maybe some micro brews, but no Bud at Miller field, no Miller at Busch)

AB and the Card's pretty much pioneered the modern concept of naming rights and it is worth big bucks.:D.

Off the top of my head, the only major sports field without a naming rights deal might be Lambau (sp?) Field in Green Bay -- and even it has "named entrances" and other naming rights.

Fenway Park is another.

I've never had a true hot dog on any RCI ship, even the Boardwalk Dog House on the Allure doesn't serve true hot dogs. They are better than what the Windjammer has, but nothing close to a true Chicago style dog.

They do on allure. Some are gourmet, but they have 4-5 varieties. Alsure wipeout cafe has awesome pretzel dogs.

First and foremost I am not a Cub Fan actually dislike them. But Busch Stadium was named in the 1950's Wrigley Field was named in the 1920's so I think The Wrigley Family pioneered the concept of naming rights. The big difference is A-B and Miller pay for the name. Wrigley Chewing Gum pays nothing to the Cubs. Pretty good advertising for them don't you think. :eek:

It appears that many of us are not fond of the Cubbies and hence the relationship Wrigley has with the Cubs may be counter-productive advertising :D (particularly if you had ever been forced to endure a game in that out-of-date heckhole :))

Wrigley field was named to "honor" some Wrigley or another. A-B wanted to re-name their stadium to Budweiser Stadium. MLB would not allow it, so they named in Busch in honor of the Busch family and then created a product Busch Beer to capitalize on the naming.

. . . Although Juicy-Fruit field would have certain "ring" to it! :D

Fenway Park is another.

Of course, good one (my Midwest myopia strikes)

ahecht · February 20, 2014

Fenway Park is another.

As is the Georgia Dome, Soldier Field Paul Brown Stadium, Arrowhead Stadium, and Madison Square Garden.

If you include stadiums named after teams you also can include Yankee Stadium, Dodger Stadium, Angel Stadium of Anaheim, Oriole Park at Camden Yards, Nationals Park,

Please tell me your not even thinking about calling that Lasagna looking meal a pizza! :confused: Any "pizza" that has to be eaten with a knife and a fork is NOT pizza. :rolleyes: That's not to say it's not good. But just not pizza. Pizza should be thin crust and cooked so that it stays stiff when being held by the crust. :D
By the way, I'm from New Jersey!!

I was born and raised and lived my whole life Northern California and I would like to give a Californians thought on the great pizza debate. The thing I was born and raised and lived my whole life Northern California so I am not qualified to have a opinion on pizza. Anywhere they think it is OK to put pineapple on pizza just proves that we on the west coast don't know squat about pizza.

You can also get the hot dog at Johnny Rockets with Mustard, Ketchup and all the trimmings.

You know, this thread has been really refreshing for me. I was getting tired of reading the same opinionated debates every day (smuggling alcohol, formal night attire, is the drink package worth it, is RCL literally the devil, etc. etc.). All of those rehashed conversations pale in comparison that is the hot dog war.

Also I like to put mayo on my hot dogs.

I agree! The debates are always fun between who has the best Hot Dog or Pizza. I do agree with TahoBob any place that puts any type of fruit on a Pizza knows nothing about pizza! Being born in Chicago I will always love my Chicago Dogs, Pizza, and we didn't even start about a Chicago Beef. No place can beat a Chicago Beef!:D

No self respecting hotdog aficionado would ever put ketchup on a hotdog

This is like putting A-1 on a well prepared steak. :)

As i once witnessed when my FIL literally DROWNED a filet mignon with that slop. This coming from the man who will vut the toughest roast down the middle, incinerate it on the grill and proceed to call it "steak." It's sad really.....

Well they also like to put avocado on everything from what I've seen. While I like avocado (love fresh guac), I don't think it belongs on everything.

I've had a hotdog on Allure, those are a very far cry from gourmet.
