    The adventure of eating a two-foot long, $32 hot dog

    The Boomtown Dog is a new addition to the concessions at ONEOK Field, home to the Tulsa Drillers baseball team. It's two-foot long. The frankfurter is one pound and has a pound of chili and a pound of cheese on it, and a ton of fries.

    Want to give it a try? Members of our staff did, and lived to tell about it.
