One more week until Draft Day -THANK GOD
-
Will try this with Nathans Hot Dogs which I like best. Wish they still had Lion Brand.
Hey, lookie what I found:
Anonymous Answer:If you are in Cleveland, Lion Brand hot dogs are now Five Star Beef weiners. I first tasted them 25 years ago at a bar on Kinsman Rd. ( and fell in love with them. ) I asked the bartender where did they get these " dogs " from, He told me they were " Lion Brand " dogs. I began purchasing them from " Stockyard Meats, But " Lion brand " went out of business. Five Star purchased their recipe, and began selling them under their name. If you are in Cleveland, you can find " Five Star Beef " wieners at Daves super markets and Sams Club.

Diehardbrownsfan, we did not purchase the Lion brand recipe. We use our own recipe for our wieners. Best regards, Bob GutweinSent from my iPhone
I remember as a kid eating Lion Brand Hot Dogs in Cleveland Municipal Stadium with Stadium Mustard. Best Hot Dog ever. I have heard that you purchased the recipe from Lion Brand when they went out of business and use it as your Five Star Brand Hotdogs. Is this true?ThanksDiehardbrownsfan -

Too bad my 6 year old Grandson is going to the Draft Party with Cal, another friend & I or we could delve deeper into this "coming out of the liberal closet" thing!
Steve, You may have put up the post of the year!!! LMAO!!

*********************************
Good grief. lol.
Just so everybody knows:
-
I first met Steve while visiting the set of Steve making a commercialabout these very same hotdogs:Can you tell which actor he is?
-
No, Westside, Diehard and Canton Mike are friends.
They are coming out to our farm this spring, to groundhog skeet.

-
Groundhog skeet - Canton Mike and Steve haven't gone with me yet,
but they are really interested and can't wait....
-
Bring back the helmet phone for draft day.

I would love to have a Helmet Phone. I tried to find one for years.

sorry... I think groundhogs are cool. I will come out for a diet root beer...
WSS
My dad would shoot the groundhogs, then sell or give them to someone from Snydertown.

Too bad. That leaves Diehard and Canton Mike.
Groundhog skeet is where you get some knucklehead friends to come out
and their job is to reach down in the groundhog holes, grab the groundhogs
by their tails, and then drag em out of the holes and fling them way up in the
air and I shoot the flying groundhogs.
crap. Somebody must have clued Steve in as to what it was.
Don't tell Diehard and Canton Mike, they are ready to go....
Good help is hard to find these days....
-
Finally got the official word that I can take off Friday! 1 1/2 more days till the draft/weekend!
-
A very close friends' Mother passed today, so I'll still go to the Browns' Draft Party, but it looks like Friday & Saturday will be DVR'd & watched later. Supporting a good buddy at a stressful time overrides sports.
