A group of students from a Kansas high school rode to prom in style when they were able to enlist the services of an Oscar Mayer Wienermobile.
Breckan Andrews, a junior at Seaman High School, said the unconventional way he and his friends arrived at prom started when they took a trip to a Sonic fast food restaurant in Topeka and spotted the hot dog-shaped vehicle parked at a local Dillons grocery store.
“One of my buddies was like, ‘Can we rent this thing?’ and I was like, ‘Well, what if we just ask about prom? What if they take us? It’s tomorrow,'” Andrews told KSNT-TV. “Like, that’d be insane.”
The friends approached Maggie Dawson, the Wienermobile’s “Hot Dogger” driver, with their request.
“I’m just used to asking weird questions like that, to be honest. I like talking to everyone and it just made sense in my mind. You miss all the shots you don’t take,” Andrews told WIBW-TV.
Dawson said the decision was easy.
“It was like a little light bulb,” she said. “We were like, ‘Well, what time is prom?'” And from there, we checked our schedule, and we were able to make it happen.”
The Oscar Mayer crew delivered the students to prom free of charge.
“People take limos,” student Cooper Lietz said. “This is basically just a big hot dog limo.”
