Nathan's 1/4 Poundall Beef Hot Dogs
Many believe that hot dogs taste best inside a baseball park — especially when the game is played in LSU's Alex Box Stadium, Southern University's Lee-Hines Field and University of Louisiana at Lafayette's M.L. "Tigue" Moore Field.
With college baseball season in full swing, there are plenty of opportunities to grab a hot dog at all three stadiums — go on a stadium hot dog tour, so to speak. (Anyone want to give it a try and send us pics and hot dog reviews? If so, email features@theadvocate.com.)
Even though baseball season has us thinking of hot dogs, you don't have to wait for a game to get one. The Baton Rouge and Lafayette areas offer plenty of options. Here are six places to get you started:
Lucky Dogs
We know what you're thinking: Lucky Dogs is New Orleans' signature hot dog stand — and you're right.
We always imagine author John Kennedy Toole's Ignatius J. Reilly comically berating us from behind the cart each time we see a Lucky Dogs stand, even when we see one in Baton Rouge.
New Orleans' Lucky Dogs' fleet of mobile carts dates back to the 1940s. Lucky Dogs opened one of its hotdog-shaped stands in front of Downtown Grocery, 263 Third St., in mid-February.
