ADVISORY/Oscar Mayer Wienermobile Rolls into Bay Area 7-Eleven Stores to Celebrate Anniversary of Big Bite Hot Dogs
Business Wire, Sept 23, 1998
--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
The Oscar Mayer Wienermobile is heading down the hot dog highway, stopping at 7-Eleven stores in the Bay Area to celebrate another big dog, 7-Eleven stores' Big Bite(R) hot dog.
Ten years ago, the nation's leading convenience store retailer introduced the Big Bite all-beef Oscar Mayer hot dog. It was an instant wiener! Last week, 7-Eleven celebrated a second milestone -- the sale of the 1 billionth Big Bite in San Diego.
The giant 27-foot rolling Wienermobile hot dog will roll into the Bay Area on Tuesday, September 29, and Wednesday, September 30 visiting 7-Eleven stores to celebrate 1 billion-plus Bites sold. Besides handing out the requisite Oscar Mayer wiener whistles at each stop, the Wienermobile will be the main course of a special event planned at each 7-Eleven store visited. Locally, the lean mean wiener machine will appear at the following stores:

"The Big Bite has been one of 7-Eleven stores' most popular food offerings ever," says Joe Horres, category manager for 7-Eleven. "What better way to celebrate 10 years and 1 billion Big Bites than to invite the top dog of them all, the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile."
The Big Bite and 1/4 lb. Big Bite account for almost two thirds of grilled items sold at 7-Eleven. This summer, 7-Eleven introduced the Biggest Big Bite(R), a 1/3-pound hot dog.
