I only had a hot dog at Dodger Stadium, but that thing was disgusting. A couple of people I know are fond of these Dodger dogs. But I don't know why.

That should give you a good idea of the Dodgers' fans' taste.

And this poll is valid ONLY if you've eaten hot dogs at EVERY park.

Fenway Park- Fenway Franks- BEST BY FAR !!!

Try the mustard, relish, sauerkraut combination and try your hardest to get Green Monster seats. They rule too.

Tropicana Field- Worst, I flew there to see an uncle and got into the scheduele and found a Red Sox game coming up, so I went there got a hot dog and some nachos... The Red Sox lost and I got food poisining.

I have been to about every east coast park,I have relatives all over but none on the west.

Shea really isn't that bad, Yankee Stadium was a lukewarm experience because it was the 17-1 game but I had sat next to a frenzy of Die-hards, the hot dogs were fine but there was alot of ketchup fanatics (ughh..).

Yankee Stadium is pretty good. Shea is the worst. They taste bad and they are usually ice cold!

Let me guess, even though you've never been there, the worst are at Comerica Toilet Bowl Park?

Dodger Dogs are very good, IF you go to Smart and Final, buy the frozen 18 pack for $6.99, some buns for a couple of buck and grill them yourself on your own grill, but the ones atthe ballpark are nothing special.

Sorry to say the Angels went to Farmer John Dogs this season as well, and frankly not as good as before.

The Toilet Bowl has a Leo's Coney Island (A Detroit-area chain), which is a great place to eat.

The Ballpark Franks at The Corner were great. It was a huge mistake when they switched brands in the nineties, I think it was. People revolted.

I noticed the big Best Kosher sign at US Cellular. If that's what they serve, you certainly can't go wrong.

I, personally, have never met a dog at a ballpark that I didn't like.

The Columbus Clippers (Yankees AAA) have a dime-a-dog night every year, actually a couple of them a year. The lines are so crazy, by the third inning, they barely put the things on the grill. It's like, open the package, throw it on the grill, one 1000, two 1000, three 1000, here's your dog! Never stopped me from eating them though!

I've been to 34 major league parks and have a clear winner as far as best hot dog:

Jack Murphy Stadium (defunct) had a BBQ run by none other than Randy Jones. There you could get actual BBQ, including a 12" 1/2lb hot dog. By far the tastiest and biggest dog in the majors.
For those who like brats, County Stadium was a tough one to beat.
As far as 'worst', there wasn't one that stood far below the others, but I remember being quite let down by the Dodger Dog. I was expecting a Randy Jones dog, but got not much at all.
