Launched in 1936, the world-famous WIENERMOBILE was created to lift the country’s spirits during the great depression. It quickly became a national Icon, visiting cities all over the country.
In 1963 they debuted their jingle,”My bologna has a first name, it’s ‘O-S-C-A-R’ My bologna has a second name, It’s M-A-Y-E-R. Oh, I love to eat it every day,And if you ask me why I’ll say, Cause’ Oscar Mayer has a way with B-O-L-O-G-N-A!!!!” (Admit it- you just sang that in your head).
It went on to become one of the longest-running TV commercials in the country.
On November 18 and 19, the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile will make two stops in Montgomery County as part of its journey across the U.S.
While the Wienermobile is in town, guests can get a photo with the 27-foot-long hotdog-shaped vehicle, as well as a free ‘Wiener Whistle’.
You’ll find the iconic vehicle at two local Walmarts :

These stops are only a few in the hot dog shaped car’s trip across the us. According to a release, the Wienermobile visits a new state every week. You can even request the Wienermobile to make a special appearance, but you need to ask way in advance, up to 12 months.
