With Dean's permission -
Yes, its that time again. "Bite the Wieeenie" at Pink?s in Los
Angeles, Nov 22, 2008.
PINK'S - HOME OF THE WORLD'S BEST CHILI DOG (I'm sure this comment
will be challenged)
Pink's is an honest-to-god Hollywood icon, sub-cultural gathering spot
and 2007 IBR bonus location. The establishment doesn't know we are
coming nor do they care. Whether you're John McCain, Barack Obama,
Angelina Jolie, Elvis, Steve Jobs, or Lisa Landry, everyone waits in
line. And the 1-hour+ wait at midnight for a $2.85 hot dog is a
unique experience. Jacked up pickups, Porsches, pimpmobiles, and
junkers all share a miniscule parking lot while stretch limos and
Hummers circle the block while their contents wait in the 1-hour+
line. Besides us LDRiders with ATGATT, it would not be unusual to see
unique body piercing, facial tattoos, the best body modifications that
money can buy, spikes and dreadlocks, prom dresses, grunge street wear
and barefoot surfers standing in line.
HOT DOG MENU
If you're into hot dogs . . . check this amazing menu out.
https://www.pinkshollywood.com/pgz/menu.htm
The top of the line gastrointestinal bomb is the "THREE DOG NIGHT" --
3 hot dogs, wrapped in a giant tortilla, 3 slices of cheese, 3 slices
of bacon, chili & onions remains the same price as last year ?
$6.45!!!!!!!! Make a list so when you get to the front of the line,
you don't start stuttering, mumbling or talking pig latin.
LANE SPLITTING
The sub theme for this event is "Lane Splitting" or the most fun you
can have with your butt in a continuous high pucker mode!!!! You've
heard IBR, SPANK, CAL24 and LA City 1K "We Were Stupid First" riders
talk of the infamous California lane splitting. Now's your chance to
test your gluttonous maximus sphincter reflex by diving into the arm
pit of Los Angeles for a midnight stomach churning Pink's chili dog.
Lane splitting will be at it's peak during normal rush hour 3:00 PM -
8:00 PM.
