The life of a Sconedog

Anyone wondering what a sconedog is?

Years ago, we spent every Friday night driving up to Layton for Doug to play on a softball team with some friends. We always stopped at a gas station just off the freeway (Flying J) to get refreshments. They have a large hot rack with all sorts of quick bites for people on the go. Well - there we saw an amazing invention... one that apparently is quite popular, but looked pretty nasty to us. It is a giant hot dog, wrapped in a large blanket of bread dough. And possibly deep fried. Almost like a humongous pig in a blanket. Although we've never had one, it is said that they are delicous. It has become our favorite mascot... one which brings us joy each time we remember that Flying J. We've since wanted to name a sports team "The Sconedogs." Doesn't it just sound intriguing?

Sconedoggers Forever!
