TAMPA — Early this morning, someone swiped a 6-foot hot dog costume from a Sonic diner on Bearss Avenue.
The hot dog costume, worth $1,600, disappeared at 3:50 a.m., according to Hillsoborough sheriff's officials.
A witness saw a man running from the restaurant with a big hot dog suit in his arms, said sheriff's spokeswoman Debbie Carter.
So many possibilities with this one, folks …
(BTW, the photo above is not of the suspect. Apparently, the Internet is full of photos of people in hot dog costumes. This one is courtesy of Officergleason.)
