First Wienermobile: Built in 1936

“Meaty” Magaly Estrella and “Double Dog” Derek O’Leary drove the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile as it stopped by the Hinesville Wal-Mart as part of its tour of Georgia.
“We drive it for a full year,” Estrella said of the team’s current Southeastern tour. “We’re just going around showing it to everyone.”
The hotdog drivers were at Wal-Mart early in the morning and stayed until 1 p.m. when they headed to Savannah. They were showing off the Wienermobile and handing out their trademark whistles in exchange for a rendition of the “Oh, I wish I were an Oscar Mayer Wiener” song.
