The Erie SeaWolves (Double-A affiliate of the Detroit Tigers) held “Sugar Rush Night” on Saturday at UPMC Park, and they went to great, questionable lengths to celebrate the night’s theme.
Among the items being served is a hot dog that features a cotton candy bun and is covered with Nerds. Yes, really. This is actually a thing you can buy at the ballpark:

SeaWolves pitcher Alex Faedo — a first-round pick by the Tigers in 2017 — actually gave this hard-to-believe hot dog a try:
