WV Hot Dog Festival happened...again.

Well, today marked another WV Hot Dog Festival at Pullman Square in downtown Huntington.

This year, I couldn't be bothered.

Let's look at who wasn't there, according to the Herald-Dispatch:

Ok, so my four favorites in town won't be there? Am I going to sweat a gallon to get some C-list hot dogs and watch some weenie dog races?

No thanks, maybe next year.

Or maybe not.

Sam's was there and I saw the owner of Knuckles (patron). It is what it is, stop hating so much!

Actually, Sam's Hot Dogs was at the WV Hot Dog Festival, as was Frostop Drive-In, Stewarts Original Hot Dogs, Midway Drive-In, Charlie's Harley-Davidson Diner, and new this year from Webster Springs, WV--the famous Custard Stand Hot Dogs...along with others. I'm sorry you missed it. Everyone seemed to have a good time, hot weather and all. Hopefully, you'll visit the festival again next year. :)

hello. i was visiting relatives and could have gone to the festival but skipped it when i saw a previous post of yours. i am glad i didn't go. when you said many vendors didn't even have slaw, that was a big red flag to me. is there a festival that truly captures the wv dog culture? i would like to know if there is. my favorite dog to date is from the parkway in logan, wv. thanks for any info.
