America's Iconic Hot Dog on a Stick Turns 80, Celebrates with 80-Cent National Hot Dog Day Promotion

TL;DR

Hot Dog on a Stick is celebrating its 80th anniversary with an 80-cent National Hot Dog Day promotion. The brand was recently acquired by an affiliate of Amazing Brands, founded by Stephen Siegel.

On Wednesday, July 15, guests who purchase any stick at regular price will receive a second stick for just 80 cents—a tribute to 80 years of serving generations of fans.

The offer is available in-store only at participating locations and includes all stick varieties, including Original Turkey on a Stick, Beef on a Stick, Veggie on a Stick, Pepper Jack Cheese on a Stick and American Cheese on a Stick. Limit one promotional pair per transaction.

This promotion is part of the brand's year-long 80th Anniversary Celebration, honoring eight decades of nostalgia while introducing Hot Dog on a Stick to a new generation of guests.

The anniversary celebration comes on the heels of an exciting new chapter for the iconic brand. Last week, Stephen Siegel, founder of Amazing Brands, announced that an affiliate of his company acquired Hot Dog on a Stick, marking the beginning of the brand's next era. Amazing Brands plans to strengthen operations, enhance the guest experience, and pursue thoughtful expansion while preserving the nostalgia and traditions that have defined Hot Dog on a Stick since 1946.
