or...go to www.zazzle.com and do a search for 'hot dog' in 'apparel'


modesty forbids me from naming the designer....

Hey Lou! It'll be great to see you again! How do we order the shirts??

Hey Aleswench ,

Go to the link in Lous previous email .
You can pick your size , color , etc.

Follow the instructions on the site and you can order one in under ten minutes.

I would love if we all got same colors , I'm thinking ash which seems to show a little better than the grey , but hey whoever wants the hot pink , go for it .

Benzee

Duh - that is what happens when you do 15 things at one time - I didn't read thoroughly....doh!

linda

Oh how i wish i had the time for this trip!! Hope you all have a wi=onderful time!!

I would do anything short of quitting my job to do a Jersey hot dog tour with John Fox. Unfortunately, that's the only way I'd be able to make it this time around.

Hello all ,

Cervisiam ,

Check received for two , you are all set .

20 paid in full .

List of 32 total .

Coney Island Lou ,

I got your pay pal , you are all set , and I will be oredering my shirts this week .

Anyone interested in paying by pay pal , my wife and I have an account set up for ebaying , so it adds another option .

Email me for the info .

Benzee

hey guys,
what is the deal if you live in Jersey already and want to follow the tour bus? is this ok? my family and i are big rutts hutt fans and i will use any excuse to get up there.

everyone is welcome, no one has to ride the bus. If you enjoy driving in north Jersey traffic and know your way around, then by all means drive your own car.

Cheers, John

The bus IS picking up at Galloping Hill....not just OC..thought that needed to be clarified....

ALSO..if you are from Westchester/Rockland/Bergen,or even southern Connecticut, I BELIEVE it would be possible that a second pick up point could be arranged along the way- i.e., the Sloatsburg/Ramapo service area on the Thruway or somewhere along NJ 17.....check with Benzee....

Hello all ,

First of all , Seafarer John is correct . If you like driving in traffic all day , feel free to follow the bus . Otherwise for the rockbottom price of $20 per person you can enjoy the day , stress free riding in an airconditioned bus .

Second , as of now , we will have one pickup location in Orange County NY , close to the originating point of the bus company .
Newburgh , Middletown or Monroe . I will have the location by Labor Day .

My suggestion is if you are in Jersey or south , to meet us at the Galloping Hill Inn . Anyone traveling from the north , feel free to hop on with the group in Orange County.

Either way you are sure to have a great day .

Benzee

Hello all ,

Aleswench ,
Did you get the address if not just check out this post , first post , all the info is right here .

To all ,

Getting close to the day , less than one month away . Let me know if you want to come along .

Also Coney Island Lou made up shirts for the tour . Check out the link he has if you want one.

Benzee

This sounds like so much fun! Tell me, why NJ? Is NJ known for hot dogs? How can one find out if there are different places in VA for hot dogs?

You miss the point. We are going to New Jersey to introduce those poor Jerseyite people to hot dogs - everybody's bringing a cooler full of their own favorites - a kind of care package...

cheers, John

That's great! I've had Liehs & Steigerwald franks and they are exceptional. It's good to be able to get these without having to pay for shipping, which costs as much as or more than the dogs. It would be nice if someone can bring down some Sahlen's. These are the franks that are used at Ted's in and around Buffalo. I had these for the first time yesterday. Someone I met online who happens to live nearby had about 20 pounds in his freezer. He was kind enough to give me some, and even cooked me a few. They were topped with Webers mustard and relish, also from Buffalo.

looking forward (very much) to the hot dog tour !

I'm surprised that Charlies Hot Dogs in Kenilworth (the original one ) did'nt make the cut ! It's only a few miles from the Galloping Hill Inn , and their Italian Hot dogs are excellent! Perhaps it has already been included on previous tours?
