Brandon's Closest View of Oscar Mayer Wienermobile's 25th Anniversary Tour

One of advertising’s most recognizable vehicles is rolling into town.

The Oscar Mayer Wienermobile — a vehicle shaped like a hotdog on a bun, if you don’t know — is making stops in the Tampa Bay Area from Tuesday through Sunday (Sept. 25-30).

Closest to Brandon, it will be at the New Tampa Walmart, 19910 Bruce B. Downs Blvd., from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Sunday (Sept. 30). Also, at the Walmart in Tampa the day before, at 1505 North Dale Mabry Hwy. (See chart below.)

“We will be going to a few grocery stores during our visit to meat people from the community, take free pictures with the Wienermobile, and hand out collectible Wiener Whistles,” according to a news release from Oscar Mayer.

The visit is part of a nationwide journey to celebrate the 25^th anniversary of the Wienermobile. According to Wikipedia, there currently are eight Wienermobiles in existence. Only college seniors who are about to graduate are eligible to be drivers. 

"Anggie-Dog" and "fellow Hotdogger Deli Eliot" note in a press release that they are "on a journey across the U.S. to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Wienermobile tradition since (1988)." Also noted (in a slapstick-fun choice of words):

We will be going to a few grocery stores during our visit to meat people from the community, take free pictures with the Wienermobile, and hand out collectible Wiener Whistles. We would really appreciate it if you could help spread the word about our visit to Tampa. Some people have been waiting a lifetime to see the Wienermobile, so we want to make sure everyone knows we're in town! We want to share this good news with the community and spread smiles around the city. Ketchup with us and we would let you have exclusive tour of the Wienermobile!
