The Stand in Dallas Presents:
Dallas’ 1st Annual Mini-Hot Dog Eating Contest
On Saturday, June 2nd, The Stand on McKinney Avenue in Dallas will host the 1st
Annual Mini-Hot Dog Eating Contest.
Contestants will compete for a Dallas first: their face painted on a 15-foot by 60-foot
wide mural off McKinney Avenue for an entire year next to some of Dallas’ most
generous philanthropists.
Other prizes include cash prizes and Big D bragging rights. For contestants, the
registration cost is $25 and open now online at www.TheStandDallas.com. All
proceeds will benefit the Mike Modano Foundation, founded by Dallas hockey-
legend Mike Modano, helping at risk children in the DFW area. Modano himself will
be there to cheer on contestants and possible chow down on some mini-hot dogs
as well.
First Place will win $1,000 and their image for everyone to admire on the
restaurant’s wall next to others who will win their spots through an upcoming
auction. Second place will win $500 and third $250.
The 1st Place finisher will also be recognized at The Standʼs LIVE AUCTION on
June 16th for the remaining seven positions on the mural which will also benefit the
Mike Modano Foundation.
So grab your friends and your appetite and come out to The Stand on June 2nd
and show off your eating skills! You could be crowned the champion and be
immortalized in The Standʼs mural of all things greatness in Dallas, TX.
