In a play to win back the hearts – and appetites – of softened-up Phillies fans, Shake Shack is sliding into home with a promotion that'll have frugal frank fiends lining up around the block. According to FOX29, the fast-casual juggernaut is set to offer $1 hot dogs at three of its Philadelphia outposts, reviving the spirit of the city's cherished "Dollar Dog Nights."

Fans were less than pleased when the Phillies called it quits on the long-standing discount dog days. In statement obtained by NBC Philadelphia, the Phillies cited unruly behavior and survey feedback as reasons for throwing in the towel after a 27-year run. Nonetheless, Shake Shack is primed to pinch-hit with bargain pups on March 28, April 2, and April 16, giving die-hards a reason to come out and play.

Shake Shack's $1 deal is leagues away from their standard pricing, with hot dogs usually barking up the cash register at $4.49 a piece. But is this just a clever sales pitch, or a true grand slam for the community? "Only rule – no throwing," Shake Shack joked, aiming to dodge the kind of mishaps that perhaps led to the ballpark's promotional demise in the first place.

Patrons looking to score these deals will have to adhere to the four hot dogs per check limit and remember to use "DOLLARDOG" at checkout, as per details from 6ABC. One can certainly hope the concession stands at Citizens Bank Park are taking notes – after all, nothing says baseball quite like a hot dog in hand, even if it's not the same steal as before.
