Every once in a blue moon something amazing happens in sports. Take the time, for example, when Yinka Dare (R.I.P.) made his first assist. Or those rare moments when Ricky Henderson referred to himself in the first person.
Or those times when members of The Sports Hernia come across a story that they thought they wrote, only to find out that no, it is a REAL story.
Well, we saw the headline for this gem and collectively did more double-takes than a bunch of nerds in an 80s movie after a hot babe walks by.
Bomb squad blows up hot dogs
"The bomb squad detonated the packages. The Phillies said the hot dogs were heavily wrapped in white packaging and duct tape so they could be fired from the Phanatic's hot-dog launcher."
This wildly entertaining, yet dangerous fan-fueled device reminds us of another souvenir-launching mishap.
You need a hot dog!
