Hotdog Street Force

The Impossibly Handsome Al Weiers

Not only is The Impossibly Handsome Al Weiers impossibly handsome, he is also way smart about hot dogs, magic buses and hippies, as the Hot Dog Doctors found out during the mission to the Magic Bus Cafe. We totally didn’t know that this Magic Bus would be as rad as it is, and then yeah, it totally was! We were super stoked!

Al was also completely supportive of walking around the farmer’s market for a little while, and was super cool when we couldn’t find the bus right away when we were on the wrong part of Lake Street. These things happen. All the time. Lucky for us, The Impossibly Handsome Al Weiers just goes with the flow.

Brn-n-Srv

Lt. Brown-n-Serve, formerly known as Johnnycakes, has been with the Hot Dog Street Force since the second mission to SuperAmerica.

Brn-n-Srv fondly remembers being served Frankenfurters as a child, and says they were gross. Apparently, with every bite you could feel where the chili was, because there was less resistance there in its hollowed-out middle. It sounded supreme to the max to the Hot Dog Doctors, but then, most people have more discerning taste than us.

Dnz

Dnz, pronounced Deanz and short for Deanna, joined up with the Hot Dog Street Force for our third mission to First Avenue.

Dnz is a long-time lover of the hot dog with impeccable dining credentials. She is excited to be a part of future missions where the entire Force and the Doctors can succeed. Dnz was quick to notice on mission #3 that the establishment was ill-prepared to serve the throng that would flock to a dollar-per-dog event, noting only 2 institutional-sized packs of hot dogs behind the counter. It is radical support like this that will land us on Letterman someday, so we’re totally stoked to have her assistance.

HrMrSprstr

Let’s just say that if it wasn’t for HrMrSprstr, the Hot Dog Blog might be broken up. For good! Because Hz was stranded in Palm Springs, and didn’t have $950 to get a flight out, and he picked her up and brought her safely to Los Angeles where she could get home for $600 less. (Let’s also just get it out there that it was Hz’ own stupidity that landed her stranded in Palm Springs to begin with. Okay. Fine.)

Anyway, HrMrSprstr was like, “Baby, when life hands you cow lips and buttholes, make hot dogs!” because Hz’ super crappy, exhausting, expensive day turned out really fun because they went on a mission to Pink’s! And it was so great! Thanks, HrMrSprstr, you’re the MAN.

Kathryn

Kathryn joined the street force through the port hole and, boy, we were lucky she did! Kathryn’s I’ll try anything attitude not only emboldened the team to step through to someplace beyond, but brought the giant crndg into our practice! Kathryn willing, she will be with us on many future missions!

Kt

Kt, pronounced “Katie” has a very robust hot dog eating resume. The Hot Dog Doctors have accompanied her on more trips to street fairs and music festivals than we can count, and we can vouch for her ability to eat many, many feet of dog.

Kt joined the Hot Dog Street Force on the mission to the Twins Homo-pener and unfortch had to sit by herself for a little while. But it wasn’t too bad because she got to sit next to some SUPER cute boys who were really helpful when we were asking tons of baseball questions. Like, “Who is that?” and “What are they doing?” and “Why are they just standing there?” You know, questions like that. The Hot Dog Doctors are taking Kt to the Rock the Garden music festival this summer, and then you’ll see some serious dog-eatin’ and joke tellin’, sucka!

Lz

Lz, prounced “Liz” is short for Elizabeth, I guess, but no one calls her that. Well, we might start, but only to be funny. Here’s the super coolest thing about Liz: Before there was a Hot Dog Blog, there was “Real Time Hot Dog Eating” photos that the Hot Dog Doctors posted on Facebook. We can’t remember exactly who came up with the idea of writing about hot dog eating in a blog, but it was definitely Lz who first said the words, “HOT DOG BLOG!” out loud when the idea was spawned. The Hot Dog Doctors will never forget how her little face lit up when she realized she’d finally have the pleasure of reading about hot dogs whenever she wanted. Lz’ first mission with the Hot Dog Street Force was to the Twins Homo-pener, but she’s with us like all the time, so you’ll see more of this little number. Just sit tight.

Nz

Nz, pronounced “Nay” is short for Nadine. We know, we probably shouldn’t spell it Nz if we’re not going to call her Nadz, but give us a goddamn break, ok? That reminds everyone of gonads. Super rude.

Anyway, the hot dog doctors always knew Nz had an affinity for a nice juicy dog, but we’re not at liberty to say why. Nz first mission with the Hot Dog Doctors was at the Twins Homo-pener, and even though she arrived late and had to sit by herself for a little while, she was a total trooper. The Hot Dog Doctors appreciate in particular Nz swearing skillz. You wouldn’t believe this girl’s mouth! She even says the F-word instead of “Hello” sometimes. When we go on the David Letterman TV show, we’ll have to leave her backstage.

Paul D

Although Paul D, pronounced Paul Dee (not short for anything-it’s just Paul D), didn’t join the Hot Dog Doctors on any serious missions until mission #3 to First Avenue, his influence has been totally major. He was the one who suggested we go to the Gopher Bar, which wasn’t open when we went on Mission one, remember?

Paul D likes to go to the scrapyard, and once he’s found all the good stuff and paid up, he get’s real hungry. So afters, he usually goes to get a hotdog. The Hot Dog Doctors will totally die if he doesn’t take us on one of these scrappin’ and doggin’ missions. We’re telling you: we’ll DIE!

UPDATE: Paul D did indeed eventually take us on a scrappin and doggin mission. It was RAD.
