Seven thousand dollar hot dog?

[Plant Woman]

Right now on Ebay a hot dog purchased at the NFC Championship game in Seattle has bids over 7,000 dollars. It was up around 10,000 dollars but some bidders pulled out.

Now someone is putting up a Super Bowl Hot Dog I wonder how high those bids will go?

Crazy.

What a bunch of bologna.

Why?!

[Crumb]

It's immoral to let a sucker keep his money.

What?

I'm a bit of a collector and can appreciate how things become collectible. But, this has got to be a joke? It's not like the wrapper or the dog itself has any indication that it was bought on the same day as the Championship. It's not like a ticket stub, in other words.

So, why would anyone do this?

The world just might be stupider than I thought.

It'd probably fetch more if there was an image of Jesus on the bun.

It's crazy, stupid, and too idiotic to even brag about.

Hey you wanna see mah' 7 thousand dollar hotdog that I display in the freezer?

My local TV news just did a story on this.

Meanwhile, the United States Court of Appeals for the 2nd Circuit handed down a 127-page opinion today, ruling that Christmas activities in a New York public school district that included menorahs and Ramadan symbols but not nativity scenes were neither a violation of the Establishment Clause nor an infringement of the Roman Catholic plaintiffs' Free Exercise rights.

But instead the CBS affiliate spent a minute and half on a fucking ebay hot dog. This country is in serious trouble.
