D-backs need more $25 corn dogs

[Kel Varnsen]

Sales of the Arizona Diamondbacks' $25 corn dog have been so brisk that the team's concessionaires can't wait for a week-long road trip that starts Friday so that they can prep enough to be ready for the team's April 11-13 homestand against the Los Angeles Dodgers.

The Diamondbacks are selling the D-Bat -- an 18-inch corn dog stuffed with cheddar cheese, jalapenos and bacon and served with fries -- for $25.

The 18-inch corn dog, called the D-Bat, is stuffed with cheddar cheese, jalapenos and bacon and is served with a side of fries.

The corn dog became a social media star when the team announced the item two weeks ago. Team president and CEO Derrick Hall said at the time that he didn't have any expectations, but Hall told ESPN.com on Wednesday that the item has been so successful, the team needs some catch-up time.

Wow, that is pretty pricey - even for a ballpark. But hey, people are gobbling them up, so...

I think its meant for two or 3 people, and it comes with a ton of fries.

 

[TJ]

Not bad considering we're gonna draw about 18k attendance per game

I saw a bunch of people with these on Monday Night. The amount of fries is ridiculous. A bit bigger in length and width than the corn dog and about 4 inches deep

"the team's concessionaires can't wait for a week-long road trip that starts Friday so that they can prep enough to be ready for the team's April 11-13 homestand against the Los Angeles Dodgers."

Anybody else concerned why they need so much time to prepare corn dogs?

It's a shame we weren't selling giant pretzels instead. We'd get 20 pages of Seinfeld jokes.

The Churro Dog is a warm cinnamon churro sitting inside a Long John chocolate-glazed donut, which is then topped with frozen yogurt, caramel and chocolate sauces. Its estimated calorie count is 1,117.

That churro dog really doesn't look all that appetizing to me.

[devilalum]

If your team sucks I guess you can still get attention for doing crap like this year after year.

 

[TJ]

At least they use frozen yogurt instead of ice cream to keep the calorie count down.....

BEHOLD THE NEW ELVIS JABBERDOG BROWNIE
The Rangers are playoff bound and have some aggressive food items for the postseason. This is a two-foot long brownie rolled in Rice Krispies crust, dipped in funnel cake batter and fried and costs $26, it is presumably named after SS Elvis Andrus and not Presley, although the singer might have approved.
