And that's how many Hot Dogs???

New York Hot Dog Vendor Evicted . . .

This hot dog vendor was paying almost "$643,000 per year for the vending rights near the museum steps."

Damn. Now just some basic fast math: $643,000.00 / 365 days = $1762.00 per day. Don't know the cost of a hot dog there but I paid $3 in DC outside of DAR Constitution Hall a month ago. So $1762.00 / 3 = 588 hot dogs per day. If the guy works a 12 hour day it comes out to abut 49 hot dogs per hour. That's roughly 1.6 hot dogs every two minutes.

And that's just to pay rent. Does not include the cost of supplies or any profit.

Damn.

There's a few breakfast/lunch carts here in Philly that make over $600,000 a year. They get something like 72 dozen rolls a day.

I just find the whole thing incredible. At 72 dozen that's over 800 hot dogs a day. That's in excess of one per minute, every hour for at least a 12 hour day.
