What the Hell is Swish Cheese? And what the Hell is a San Francisco Dog?
Posted by: Richie Rich in Giants, Hot Dogs, SignsLast week, we showed you an outdated portrait of Aaron Heilman at Safeco Field (who now plays for the Cubs) that needs to be taken down.
This week we’re going to head to San Francisco to peek at a Hot Dog Menu at AT&T Park. You tell me what’s wrong with this picture …
First of all … $6.75 for a freakin’ plain Hot Dog? Sweet Merciful Crap. That is just criminal. I’d have to get Federal Bailout Money just to eat lunch at AT&T Park. I don’t even want to know how much the Dungeness Crab Sandwich costs at the Crazy Crab stand at AT&T.
Second … what in the Hell is SWISH Cheese? You know -scratch that – I really do not want to know. Seems kinda apropos for San Francisco, mind you … not that there’s anything wrong with that. That typo might make sense if Nick Swisher played for the Giants.
And what the Hell is a “San Francisco Dog?”
Swiss Cheese, Sauerkraut, Onions, Pickle, and Thousand Island Sauce. When did this strange combo of a Reuben sandwich and a Hot Dog become the “San Francisco Dog?” Has anyone ever had one of these things? Please tell me this abomination isn’t any good … if you’re willing to admit you paid $6.75 for one, that is.
Thousand Island Dressing on a Hot Dog. Only in California.
I’m trying to decide what’s the bigger desecration to a Hot Dog … Ketchup or Thousand Island Dressing.
Or paying $6.75 for one.
Who is the better mascot - Stomper or TC Bear?
- Stomper (Oakland A's) (71%)
- TC Bear (Minnesota Twins) (29%)

If this keeps up, I’m going to have to add a “Sign of the Week” category alongside ”Jersey of the Week.”
Whatever happened to Jersey of the Week anyway?
