Hygrade Food Products launched a contest to its employees in order to come up with the best brand name for their Detroit Tigers stadium hot dogs. Mary Ann Kurk, one of Hygrade Food Products sales people at the time, won the contest with the name "Ball Park Franks". She won a leather living room chair and a cash prize of $25 ($}} as of ). It was from this venue that Ball Park Franks gained popularity and became known in American pop-culture.〔(Video Gallery - Famous Speeches - The History Channel )〕 Sara Lee acquired Hygrades from Hanson Industries in 1989. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ball Park Franks」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
