LOS ANGELES — For more than 45 years Southern Californians and Los Angeles baseball fans have enjoyed the world-famous Dodger Dog® from legendary California meats company Farmer John. Baseball fans will have even more to cheer about when the Los Angeles Dodgers take the field for their home opener against the Arizona Diamondbacks on Tuesday at 1:10 p.m. because for the first time ever Farmer John® Smoked Sausages will be served throughout Dodger Stadium. Available in three varieties – Italian, Polish and Louisiana Hot – Dodger fans can also grab a free sausage sample on their way to the ballgame from the all-new Farmer John TAILGATER mobile food truck that will make its debut in the right field parking lot of Dodger stadium prior to the game.
Highly modified by West Coast Customs, the smokin' hot Farmer John TAILGATER is outfitted with three 55-inch Samsung® ultra-thin flat screen TVs and a VIP lounge that features a faux baseball-field turf floor to offer fans the ultimate tailgating experience.
"Every year visitors to Dodger Stadium enjoy about 2.2 million Dodger Dogs® while soaking up America's national pastime, and now they can add to the experience with three delectable flavors of smoked sausage," said Greg Longstreet, president, Farmer John. "We're pleased to be long-time partners with the winning Dodger organization and look forward to a great season."
Available in all grocery outlets where Farmer John® products are sold as well as the new Farmer John TAILGATER truck and Dodger Stadium, Farmer John® Smoked Sausages are made from the freshest, natural pork with no fillers or by-products, and never any MSG, gluten or soy fillers. All sausages have a real, natural casing that gives Farmer John® Smoked Sausage its famous snap at first bite. Farmer John® products also can be enjoyed at major Southern California sports complexes including Staples Center, Rose Bowl, Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum and Home Depot Center.
Individual Dodger game tickets can be purchased online at dodgers.com, via telephone at 866-DODGERS, in person at Dodger Stadium in Lot P or at all Southern California Ticketmaster outlets. Complete ticket information can also be found at www.dodgers.com/tickets.
