Wiener Races at Miller Park

mlb_a_chorizo_195.jpgWhen I found out about this, it made my month. There are Wiener races at EVERY BREWERS HOME GAME!!!! Even though I don’t know what the hell Chorizo is (it looks like a Mexican hotdog), it will be fun to watch someone wearing that big suit run around racing other costumed sausages.

Chorizo, also known as “El Picante,” will race for the first time on Saturday against the other sausages — Italian, bratwurst, Polish and hot dog. But that’ll be the only time this year he runs in the Klement’s Sausage races, which have taken place at every home game since 2000.

This is cool. I am heading down to a few games in September so I should get to see the poor souls sweating to death running in the big heavy suits. I also get to see a few Brewers games too, which is pretty cool if you ask me.

    Chorizo = Mexician Sausage. The wiener races are pretty neat.
