... and the law won.
Good friend and hot-dog wunderkind of Chicago, Doug Sohn, has just been served with the first official citation in the city for violating the foie gras ban.
He'd been warned previously--the sternly-worded letter was displayed proudly in a frame on his countertop right next to the Milwaukee Brewers racing sausage bobbleheads--but the cops showed up Friday morning to slap him with the citation, which can carry a fine of up to $500. They even sealed his foie gras as evidence!
Raise a hot dog in solidarity.
but i do have to say, they certainly took their time tracking down one of the last holdouts in the foie gras ban. i mean, he was on the news about every week telling the powers to be to stick it with their silly legislation. did they just get distracted by deliciousness every time they went by his store?
