# Deep Fried Franks This Deep Fried Hot Dog Will Be Available at Dodger Stadium for Baseball Season By Alyson Wyers | Published 2015-04-07 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/deep-fried-hot-dog References: [foodbeast](http://www.foodbeast.com/news/deep-fried-dodger-dogs/) & [dodgers.mlblogs](http://dodgers.mlblogs.com/2015/04/01/whats-new-to-eat-at-dodger-stadium/?partnerId=as_lad_20150401_43082646&adbid=10153718320338508&adbpl=fb&adbpr=45084588507) The latest over the top fare to be offered by a baseball stadium, this deep fried hot dog is a new menu item available at Dodger Stadium. Previously the venue has offered a variety of innovative ballpark franks, including the macaroni and cheese-covered Big Kid Dog and their LA Extreme Bacon Dog. This baseball season, sports fans will be able to enjoy Fried Dodger Dogs -- essentially a deep fried version of the classic Dodger Dog -- at the Extreme Loaded Dogs location at field level. The deep fried hot dog follows a range of unhealthy food options for athletic audiences, such as 'Inside the Park' nachos at Wisconsin's Miller Park, the unnamed Krispy Kreme hot dog in Wilmington, Delaware, decadent churro desserts at Chase Fields and chicken cones available at Houston Astros games. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.8/10 - Popularity: 35% | Activity: 10% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Unhealthy Stadium Food:** Opportunity for food vendors to create more extreme and indulgent menu items to attract sports fans. - **Deep Fried Delicacies:** Potential for restaurants and food establishments to offer deep fried versions of popular dishes to cater to consumers' love for indulgent food. - **Innovative Ballpark Franks:** Possibility for stadiums and food vendors to continuously create unique and inventive hot dog flavors to enhance the fan experience and drive food sales. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Food and Beverage:** Opportunity for food and beverage companies to develop and market innovative and indulgent snacks and meals for sports events and stadiums. - **Restaurant:** Potential for restaurants to incorporate deep fried dishes into their menus to offer customers unique and indulgent dining experiences. - **Sports and Entertainment:** Possibility for sports stadiums and entertainment venues to enhance the fan experience by offering a variety of creative and unique food options, including deep fried delicacies. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Baseball-Inspired Pizzas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dodger-dog-pizza.md) - [Deep-Fried Cheese Hotdogs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/footlong-mozza-dog.md) - [Snack-Infused Hot Dog Meals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cheetos-flamin-hot-stick-with-chipotle-aioli.md) - [Hot Dog-Themed Baseball Fan Merch](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/canadian-baseball-fans.md) - [Southern Cuisine Hot Dogs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/southern-bird-dogs.md) - [Ranch-Drizzled Corn Dogs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hotnranch-corn-dog.md) - [Specialty Hot Dog Menus](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/specialty-hot-dog-menu.md) - [Dough-Wrapped Hot Dogs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pilot-flying-j-big-dog.md) - [Brisket-Topped Hot Dogs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bbq-brisket-dog.md)
