A NY Giants concessions seller came up with the name. It was a colder day, and lemonade/ ice cream wasn't selling so he bought polish sausages, boiled them, and put them on white bread rolls. He yelled as a campaign, "Get your Hot Dogs here! Hot dogs!"

They invented a hotdog, because they had all of this leftover stuff from the animal that couldn't be wasted. So, they gathered up all of the "leftoevers" and formed them into a hotdog.
