Okay, so today’s topic is about the “renegade hot dog” and its price at PNC Park. Let me tell you, it was a mission just trying to figure this out!
First off, I had a craving. A serious, uncontrollable craving for a hot dog at a ballgame. Not just any hot dog, I wanted the renegade dog at PNC Park. I’d heard whispers, legends even, about this thing. Supposedly, it’s a Pittsburgh classic, loaded with toppings – you know, everything that makes a hot dog a glorious, messy experience.
I started with the obvious – Google. Typed in “renegade hot dog PNC Park price” and BAM! Nothing concrete. A few old articles mentioning the dog, some forum posts with vague references, but no actual price. Strike one.
Next step: The PNC Park website. Figured they’d have a menu online or something. Nope. Nada. Zilch. Just information about tickets and parking. Come on, people! We need hot dog info!
Then, I remembered Twitter. Social media to the rescue, right? Searched for “PNC Park hot dog” and sifted through a bunch of game day photos. Found a few blurry pics of food menus, but nothing clear enough to read the prices. Ugh.
Alright, time for some real detective work. I decided to check some Pittsburgh food blogs. I spent a good hour scrolling through local food reviews. Finally, I stumbled upon a post from like, last year, that mentioned a “gourmet” hot dog costing around $8 or $9. But it wasn’t specifically named “renegade” so I wasn’t 100% sure.
Desperate times call for desperate measures. I considered actually calling PNC Park, but that felt a bit extreme. I mean, who calls a stadium just to ask about a hot dog price? Me, apparently. I didn’t do it, though. I thought better of it.
Here’s the kicker: I ended up going to a game. I know, right? All this research, and I just had to go to the source. I marched straight to the concession stand, found the glorious renegade hot dog, and… it was $9.50. Seriously?! All that digging for a simple price tag.
The takeaway? Sometimes, you just gotta go and see for yourself. And also, the renegade hot dog is pretty damn good. Was it worth the trouble? Probably not. But was it worth the taste? Absolutely!
Lessons Learned
- The internet isn’t always right (or helpful).
- Sometimes, the best research is just doing it yourself.
- And most importantly, baseball and hot dogs are a winning combination.
