A 27-foot hot dog took to the streets of metro Phoenix over the weekend.

The Oscar Mayer Wienermobile came to the Valley late last week and made stops in Tempe, Scottsdale and Phoenix, handing out coupons and stickers and delighting visitors of all ages.

Here are seven photos from the vehicle’s stop in Tempe on Feb. 9, where over the course of six hours hundreds of people stopped to check out the beloved vehicle.

Visitors were invited to pose with the vehicle with hot-dog-shaped cutouts.
