Shine-drinking Golden Retriever goes viral at White Sox-Mariners game originally appeared in NBC Sports Chicago
One thing that MLB arguably has over other major American sports leagues is Dog Day.
Each year, certain teams select a few games from their regular season schedule to allow fans to bring their furry friends to the stadium.
After all, the only thing better than enjoying a beautiful night at the stadium is enjoying a beautiful night at the stadium with your Golden Retriever.
That was the case for thousands of fans at T-Mobile Park on Monday as the Seattle Mariners hosted their second “Bark at the Park” event of the season. The cubs also seemed to enjoy the night out on the town.
The NBC Sports Chicago camera crew captured a great photo of a Golden Retriever in a Mariners cap eating a hot dog – bun and all – in the stands. The franchise seemed to be decorated with ketchup and mustard.
The clip, posted by NBC Sports Chicago on X, went viral, garnering nearly 2.5 million views in less than 24 hours.
We cannot confirm or deny reports that the K-9 in question will replace Joey Chestnut in this year’s 4th of July Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest in Coney Island.
