- 1.8 million in 2003 - than in any other major league ballpark in the
country" - LITTLE BIG BOOK OF NEW YORK.."In 1871 Charles Feltman, a
German butcher, opened up the first Coney Island (America's First
Amusement Park) hot dog stand and sold 3,684 dachshund (or "little-
dog") sausages during his first year in business. Nathan Handwerker, a
former employee of Feltman, opened Nathan's Famous Hot Dogs and
competed with Feltman's by charging only five cents per dog, instead
of ten cents. When people began questioning the quality of his cheaper
dog, he offered free hot dogs to interns at Coney Island Hospital on
the condition that they come to his stand wearing their white coats.
Nathan's gained a reputation for being the place where the doctors
ate. Since 1916, Nathan's has hosted an annual hot dog eating contest
