Philly Sports Blog Doing 'Dollar Dog Night' April 2 In Wells Fargo Lot

Philadelphia sports blog Crossing Broad said it will sell $1 hot dogs before the April 2 home game and donate proceeds to Philabundance.

PHILADELPHIA — Dollar Dog Nights at Citizens Bank Park are over, the Phillies announced in late February.

But, a local sports blog is planning to bring it back and will donate the proceeds to a local non-profit that aim to combat hunger in the region.

Sports blog Crossing Broad announced Sunday that when the Phillies take on Cinicinatti Reds at Citizens Bank Park on Tuesday, April 2, they will be offering $1 hot dogs.

"No need to give these people any ammo," Crossing Broad's Kyle Pagan said.

At the April 2 home game, the Phillies will be offering their "buy-one-get-one" hot dog deal that replaced the beloved Dollar Dog Nights.

Pagan called the buy-one-get-one got dog deal "one of the worst promotions of all time."
