Paycom Center outside Hot Dog vendor

[BDP]

as someone that has eaten from food stalls / carts on 5 continents .. in a variety of 1st 2nd and 3rd world countries .. I think I have a pretty good handle what "people do"

they want to make money they want return customers .. making people sick does not accomplish either of these things

But that results in most of those countries having 10-30 times the amount of cases of foodbourne illness than in the the US. Why would we choose to replicate that model?

Anyway, it'd be very simple to require the vendors display their licenses, if we don't already.Then at least everyone would know which have been inspected and passed. And if someone prefers third world oversight of what they consume, they can seek that out, too. Maybe even YouTube it, bruh!

Good lord this place sometimes. If you don't want to patronize said vendor, don't. If you do, do so knowing what you already know, you may get sick or may have a hell of a hot dog and enjoy ever second of it. The constant back and forth is pretty bad.

People promoting potential public health hazards should be countered. Maybe this back and forth keeps a kid healthy because their parent decided they didn't want the risk once they've been made aware.

Who has an update on this ?

[Plutonic Panda]

What is there to update about this? Is this really something that people in Oklahoma City don’t know much about? Yes these vendors operate illegally a lot and you’re taking a risk cause a lot of them will use leftover hotdogs from the day or two before I know this cause I used to work for some of them(and Mexican street corn) around Hollywood in the Sofi stadium area. I’m not trying to be rude, but this is just a pretty common thing and almost every single city I’ve ever been to. Is this something new to OKC?

[rayvaflav]

I went down there this evening looking to observe, dissect and possibly purchase this incredible hot dog with no luck. I walked around that area and found no outside vendors and from what I've read here, I shoulda' smellt it. Is it sold from a vendor pushcart, is it the trunk of a 1970's Oldsmobile Delta 88 or is it a Home Depot 5-gallon bucket?

[kukblue1]

I didn't seem the before or after the game. I was going to get one too but I must of gotten them shut down. Sorry.

[Mballard85]

Oh I'm sure there were a ton of complaints from this board, it's pretty clear there were certain folks wound up over it.

Should this be added to the list of OKC Restaurant Closings thread ?

Just think about all the children you saved.

I’m legitimately disappointed that I won’t have the option to risk violent YOLO diarrhea to try one. Based on the smell, the risk would’ve been worth the reward lol (at least in the moment).

If you saved one from food poisoning / E. coli, HUS, or other gastroenteritis then this thread was worth it.

Helping protect people from things that can be prevented isn't cool on internet threads, but it sure is cool to the people it protects.

My rule of thumb is, the drunker you are the better the hot dogs taste.

Oh Jesus Christ, man. If you’re that concerned about it then just don’t buy one. This is one of my main reasons I don’t like Oklahoma that much is everybody is so nosy is in other people‘s business. Just let people sell the damn hot dogs outside of stadiums without the health department up their ass. No one saying we need to shut down the health department and allow every restaurant to operate with impunity. We’re talking about a hotdog stand. This is common across the country, let alone the world. I swear Oklahoma has the most small town mentality I’ve seen anywhere.

The taller, the hotdog stand the better!

But the children, the children.

Yet we let them eat Fair Food.

Plus the alcohol will kill off any bad stuff...

[rayvaflav]

If any of you here attend the next few Thunder home games and seek out this particular "street de' cuisine chef", could you snap a pic and post it on this thread so that we know who to look for? You can put that blue dot over his face to protect his anonymity.

[Paseofreak]

I just want to know what he's doing that has so many enthralled. I love hot dogs and this city is a 2/10 hot dog town.

I don't want to start a "hot dog rumble" here but since Callahan's and Doggystyle aren't on the radar any longer (please correct me if I'm wrong and point my questionable palette in their direction), I would love to give these guys some business) my go to is the Chicago Dog at Fassler Hall. It's grilled and it never disappoints.
