By - posted 7/20/2016 No Comment

We never got our Warriors’ parade this year, but the Bay Area still has a champion worthy of a parade.

Join Live 105’s Kevin Klein Live to celebrate local hot dog-eating champ Joey Chestnut (born in Vallejo, lives in San Jose) by parading him around the streets of San Francisco on Wednesday, July 20, 2016 from Noon to 2pm. They’ll be making 70 stops (that’s in honor of the 70 hot dogs Joey chomped down at the Nathan’s Famous 4th of July Hot Dog Eating Competition).

Equipped with a hot dog float, Joey and Live 105 be taking off from Pier 54 Noon sharp and making their way down the Embarcadero by AT&T Park, the Ferry Building, Fisherman’s Wharf, Fort Mason, Marina Green, the Golden Gate Bridge and all the way to Presido Bowling Alley around 1pm.

Once at the Presidio Bowling Alley, they’re planning on doing a victory lap where you can hop on the Hot Dog float and take pictures with Joey.

Then everyone will celebrate at the bowling alley with music, hardcore loitering and celebrating with hot dogs and cold beverages (for purchase)
