Hatfield locks and loads giant hot-dog gun

If Hatfield Quality Meats and Philadelphia agency Red Tettemer have anything to do with it, we will have nuclear-powered hot-dog launchers available for between-inning use at baseball games in the near future. It's unclear how the nascent Obama administration will feel about Hatfield's "safe" nuclear program, but the U.S. government has passively condoned Hatfield and Red Tettemer's other encased-meats-based products, like this sausage foosball table. Hot-dog munitions have been blamed for escalating meat-on-meat violence in the Philadelphia area. We will keep you posted on developments in this fast moving hot-dog, er, story.

I believe the filming of this piece caused a recent "terror" scare in Philly. There was a story in the news a few months ago about an incident at the stadium. According to the reports, someone had been filming an "ad" at the stadium featuring the Phanatic and his hot dog cannon. When the crew finished filming and left, the left some stuff sitting outside the stadium - according to one report, it was foil-wrapped hot dog "missiles" left on the ground. Well, someone thought they looked like "suspicious packages", so they called in the feds and the bomb squad and everything.
