🌭 Denton Original “Fletchers Corny Dog” hits an Apogee Stadium Grand Slam!

[PlummMeanGreen]

Like I’d  bet many of you, I love a good Corny dog. Forget those HEB “store bought” fakes.🤮 Agree? 

Other night at Apogee a Fletcher’s employee with a Fletchers T-shirt I purposely walked up to tell her how so many Mean Green fans are so appreciative (or will be) that UNT Athletics & Fletchers was a marriage made in Heaven & that it finally happened.  It just so happened that the young lady’s last name was Fletcher.  She was one of the head honchos of her Denton ancestor’s  famous State Fair of Texas food & icon. I told her how they would sell a bunch of ‘dogs & hopefully would become a main Apogee Stadium concession’ staple. She was quite professional & appreciative of my praise of her company’s product. 

At Half Time:  

I went to their food wagon on the stadium west side & saw a huge line of other corny dog connoisseurs of which no line would be long enough to keep them from their Corny dog.  I added the lemonade to my purchase;  then sat down, closed my eyes & had those State Fair of Texas memories with my now deceased parents. 💚💛Fletchers had already made a good night even greater for this 1976 UNT grad & proud alum!

NOW MEAN💚GREEN—BEAT THE DOG OUT OF SMU!

Do you have a vested interest in Fletcher's?

The line was very long most of the evening...folks sure love those dogs!

Will have to make it over on the 21st. The only location is on the west side, correct?

Very obscure trivia...

Name the bicycle shop that has sold a bicycle to both PlummMeanGreen and one of the Fletcher brothers.

First correct answer wins a Fletcher Corny Dog at the next home game.

You name the brand of 10 speed I bought from you, & you get a 🍺 on me,  greenjoe;  but not literally on me, of course.🙄

BEAT SMU!

Seems like I walked by another location on the east side of the  Stadium near  the entrance on the student side where I entered from   tailgate.

Ms. Fletcher, Matt from A700, told me they had another tent setup on the Student Side, too. 

BEAT SMU!

A Raleigh 10 or 12 speed as I recall.  I don't remember what I sold to Mr. Fletcher.  Ding Ding Ding.  We have a winner !!!

DING! DING! DING!  Yes, it was a Raleigh 12 speed.  Best bike I ever had & I’m sure whoever stole it probably agrees!🤠

➡️OK, Mean Green Nation!  greenjoe still needs the name of his business, right?  Of course, I have to recuse since I was the customer.

🍺 Here ya’ go, Joe—a song for you & yours!  (And You get that beer at the U of Houston game since I have weddings to DJ this Saturday & UTSA game weekend. 😩 (Those 2 were booked even before I had a MG football schedule).
