[quote]Lines outside Hot Doug's have grown epically long since owner Doug Sohn announced he will shutter his wildly popular eatery on Oct. 4 "to do something else." With roughly a week left, everyone in Wednesday's line wanted one last taste of Hot Doug's so badly, they didn't seem to mind waiting all day for it.[/quote}

Great. Now I have to redo my bucket list.

There were 5 people on line last night at 10:30.

Doug and his delicious meat will be sorely missed.

The lines got so long I stopped going anyway. I remember when it only took 20-30 minutes to get through that line. It used to only go out the door and turn around the corner and extend a bit down the street.

Hot Doug's just followed me on Twitter.

Uh, it's a little late guys. You close for good tomorrow.

Maybe that means it's your job now to provide us encased meats.

They cut the line off at 6:00 this morning. Anyone showing up after that was turned away.

Did I mention that we had like 3 inches of rain overnight?

Who stands out in the rain for 12+ hours for a hot dog???

Oh, that's right. It's not a hot dog. It's an encased meat culinary experience that will never be rivaled or duplicated.

So long Doug. You and your delicious meats will be missed....

The news just led off their midday report with an interview of a hot chick who flew in last night from LA to get on line. She'll get some meat for sure...
