It's easy to see why: Chatham, along with his codriver "Ketchup Katie" Ferguson, are Hotdoggers for Oscar Mayer, a position the company's
currently hiring for. While the job might not sound familiar right off the bun, you'll recognize their ride: the garish, orange-and-yellow Wienermobile that's shaped like a massive hot dog.
It's barbe-cute
At 27 feet long, 11 feet tall, and eight feet wide, the Wienermobile is a bus-sized celebrity in which Chatham and Ferguson travel the nation, building the Oscar Mayer brand and making peoples' days. It doesn't fit under any clearance below its 11-foot height, nor can it squeeze through a drive-thru.
