That spot is worth more than the $326k they paid. But for that kind of money, they should have exclusive rights. I believe the one who paid for the right to the spot should have exclusive access. It probably makes close to that amount of money every year.

You'd think so, but there are about 5 or 6 carts there. The regular dogs are 2.00 and the giant ones are 3.00 as I recall. Sodas are 1.50, chips 1.25.

I'm usually there on rainy or cold days when business is slow. Sunny, warm, summer, lunch, I bet it's insane. Still, that's a lot of dogs... Next time I'm there I'll make some photos of the carts.
