Someone who belongs to a social media group to which I also belong has asked what well might be the most, um, silliest<\/em> question ever posed.<\/p>\n

She wants to know “What\u2019s the best thing to eat at the stadium?”<\/em><\/p>\n

I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw this question posed on Facebook. The query comes from a member of the Amarillo Sod Poodles fan club.<\/p>\n

I am going to presume something implied in the question. I will presume that “stadium” refers to the ballpark where the Sod Poodles play baseball in Amarillo.<\/p>\n

My answer was unequivocal. I said, “hot dog.” I should have put a few exclamation points behind it.<\/p>\n

I mean, I can think of nothing that tastes better at a ballpark during a baseball game than a hot dog smothered in mustard. I believe the late talk show host Mike Douglas once said that a hot dog at a baseball game was equal to “a filet mignon.”<\/p>\n

Man, he was so right.<\/p>\n

I am not going to make fun of the question or the questioner. It just boggles my noggin that “hot dogs at the ballpark”<\/em> isn’t known universally as among the best eatin’ ever.<\/p>\n\n
