The “Three Dog Night” 25

17 Dec 2010  |  monkeyball  |KOTD

It’s a hot dog stuffed inside a brat stuffed inside a kielbasa, placed on a hoagie roll and then slathered with sauerkraut and spicy stadium mustard.

“As I was driving [to Akron] in the middle of the night, I started to wonder if I could do the same thing with sausage.”

    Said Aeros assistant GM Dan Foust. “We’re planning a healthy choice concession stand in 2011, but the Three Dog Night isn’t going to come anywhere near that stand.”

    Foust notes that the team is offering a ticket plan based around this triumvirate of meat. Fans can select 10 games on the schedule, and for each game they will receive a voucher good for a “Three Dog Night.”

    If the A’s offered this deal they’d get me to buy season tickets for the first time ever.

      I’d do it for a Big Atomic Hot.

      I’m really not a big hot dog or kielbasa fan. I’ll eat the hell outta some bratwurst though.

      And I have to say: mikev is one of my favorite people on here -slusser.

      Thanks, and go As.

          Don’t like the view, though.

            Chacun à son goût kraût, but its better than much of the rest of the Coliseum.

    So … no one has any similar ’70s boogie-rock variants? THE FOGHAT — a corndog on a stick with a molecular gastronomy-style kraut-emulsion foam topping on the tip.

    So… one of you can probably answer this in less time than it would take for me to call the dean of undergrad studies (which I wouldn’t be able to do until Monday anyway)…

    If you’re the person in charge of finalizing diploma/degree-related hoo-hah, and you’re handing honors of some kind to a graduating transfer student… do you base the honors on their GPA from the university only, or on the cumulative “all college” GPA?

    It took me an extra 20 years to do this, so yes, I am going to split fucking hairs on what distinction appears in… on… wherever it appears, damn it!

      Nurse Upgrade got hosed on this exact issue. Post high school she was a lame college student, and assembled a series of C’s D’s and Incompletes from an assortment of schools before giving up. Then, when she returned to school to become a nurse, she was (as most re-entry students are) extremely focused, and in fact got straight A’s. Pretty much universally acknowledged by profs and fellow students as the best in her CSUEB nursing class. But come graduation day, she was not accorded honors, since her aggregate GPA was dragged down by the poor grades from more than 20 years earlier.

        I was actually a very good student on my first attempt… maybe because it was 3-4 years after I dropped out of high school and it was totally voluntary. Also on my second and third/final attempts. So I’m “honored” whether they use my cumulative GPA or SJSU-only GPA. Just more honored if they use the smaller sample.

          Also want to know so that I don’t either lie or under-sell on my resumé.

          Also also realize that my school performance won’t matter in the job market as much as who I know.

            As a recent graduate, I can say that I had academic credentials that placed me in a very high percentile, but very little work experience. I didn’t get a single interview at a place where I did not have an associate who acted as my internal champion.

            • Poppy Dec 18,2010 7:49 pm || Up

              Yeah, I’ll need to rely on who who I know knows.

                  omg are you peeking at my Pandora (euphemism alert) again? It was just playing Metallica.

                  The rare Star Wars – Metallica – Oakland A’s trifecta of geekdom. We’re like BFFs.

                  Now I’m sad to admit that I don’t actually seek out Metallica, it just popped up on Pandora and I didn’t skip it…

                  The proper response, imho, is “So Fucking What”

    Just found out that Fatted Calf won’t be at the Berkeley farmers market any more. Now I have to find a new dealer.
