“Hot Diggity Dogs”<\/strong><\/p>\r\n

Chicago, Illinois<\/p>\r\n

When you go to Chicago, everybody knows where North Michigan Street is located. Next to the Chicago River is the Wrigley Building, a Chicago landmark in itself, but across the street to the north and one\u00a0level down stood a landmark of its own. Hot Diggity Dogs was a small building that sat in the midst of a huge parking area at 251 E. Ohio Street near the corner of Ohio St and Fairbanks. I am not sure when the business opened, but they had one of the best Chicago Hot Dogs around.<\/p>\r\n

While exhibiting at a show across from the Wrigley Building at street level, I went down to the small building and took photos of it, front and back.\u00a0 Later I was at Navy Pier, just a short\u00a0walk away and found the old Pepsi truck,\u00a0where I couldn’t help but take photos of it.\u00a0 I used the back of the building as a subject and\u00a0added the\u00a0Pepsi truck.<\/p>\r\n

“Hot Diggity Dogs” has since been torn down, but I heard that on the last day it was open, they had a line of people several blocks long waiting to be served their last famous hot dog.<\/p>\r\n

Rumor has it, they since opened at\u00a0a different location..<\/p>\r\n
