Be prepared to be disappointed. That said, I enjoy going to baseball games for both the game and the socializing (i.e., if the away team is batting, you really don't have to pay much attention to the game if you don't want to).

Red Onions
For a 'Dirty Water Dog' from a push cart in NYC or a van in LI you can get it smothered in 'red onions'. They are chopped onions that have been simmered, seemingly forever, in a thin tomato sauce.

The Germans (who know a thing or two about brats, sausages, and "hot dogs") tend to do mustard only, and the kind of mustard depends on the region. If they do ketchup at all, it's usually a kind of curry ketchup, rather than the super-sweet American stuff. I'm a fan of this approach.

Where I come from, mustard, raw onions and chili sauce. At home, mustard and sweet pickle relish.
It seems like every town in the US has a place that specializes in hot dogs. I don't like the place in my current home town, but here are the 2 competitors from my original home town; Teo's and Hot Dog Ranch. I get the craving every once in a while and I'm never within 1000 miles of either one.

In order of importance...
I'm open to a certain amount of variation. I like the old fashioned gravy-like hot dog chili now and then. Rarely, I'll add a hint of sweet relish just to mix it up, and relive my distant childhood. Sauerkraut is fine.
Never ketchup. Ever. Period. Shudder.
- High quality dog with casing (i.e., Nathan's, Vienna Beef, Sabrett, Boar's Head). If not available, just stop here.
- Mustard (preferably Cleveland stadium mustard)
- Tapatío hot sauce (lots and lots of this... better than chili!)
- Minced onions

Re: The post just above this one, I like sausage sandwiches with dijon mustard, though I was already vegetarian when I first tried it so they weren't meat sausages. Must have some more of that tomorrow.

Hot dogs aren't big in Seattle, although we have a very pricey (spendy, as the natives would say) chain called Po Dogs; I looked over their menu once, and fled from seeing the prices.
