How much is that doggy in the window?

I definitely appreciate the simplicity of New York hot dogs, but why can't New York ditch the water dogs and go grilled like this yummy guy I hold in my hands courtesy of San Francisco? Bacon-wrapped, smothered in onions, mustard and ketchup, please.

p.s. I failed at my bucket list (no burrito), but I'm pretty sure I made up for it in other ways.
