Ever wanted your picture taken with a giant hot dog? You may get your chance this week.

The Oscar Mayer Wienermobile is making its way to Columbia, according to a statement from Hotdogger Connor O’Neil.

The wiener on wheels will make an appearance at three locations across Columbia from Thursday through Sunday, according to the statement.

At the events, hotdoggers will be handing out Wiener Whistles and coupons, as well as playing games with all those who show up.

Here’s where and when wiener fans can catch the giant hot dog this week:
