"This year, it's such a great feeling to enjoy being with family and friends that we haven't seen in a while," says Brian Ferguson, Chief Merchant for Pilot Flying J. "Nothing says summertime quite like a backyard BBQ or a road trip with loved ones and an Oscar Mayer hot dog, especially a free one!"

"After the pandemic kept so many of us apart, it's time to celebrate being together again, and nothing sparks more smiles in the summer than delicious Oscar Mayer hot dogs," said Patricia Keller, Marketing Director at Oscar Mayer Foodservice.  "We at Oscar Mayer know you can't go wrong when you start with a better dog, and we're proud to continue to be an American tradition since 1883. We hope that everyone who stops by Pilot Flying J this summer and bites into an Oscar Mayer hot dog remembers to take life a little less seriously and enjoy the delicious side of summer."

To top off the celebration with some extra relish, the iconic Oscar Mayer Wienermobile will be making appearances at two Pilot Flying J locations in Newark and Carney's Point, New Jersey on July 21 and 26, respectively. Each Wienermobile is piloted by a team of Hotdoggers, who buckle their "meatbelts" and travel in a giant rolling hot dog to spread miles of smiles to fans everywhere. Today, the giant hot dog on wheels can be measured as 60 hot dogs long and 24 hots dogs high (which is 27 feet long and 11 feet tall).
