Joey Fatone is launching a permanent location for his Fat One’s Hot Dogs restaurant at Universal CityWalk Orlando, with the grand opening scheduled for this Saturday, September 19. The new spot replaces the former Hot Dog Hall of Fame location and features updated signage bearing the Fat One’s brand name. Fatone and his longtime manager Joe Mulvihill recently visited the site to sample menu items in preparation for opening day. This development marks a significant milestone as both Fatone and Mulvihill attended high school near Universal Orlando, and Fatone previously performed as Wolfie in Beetlejuice’s Rock and Roll Graveyard Revue at Universal Studios Florida before joining NSYNC. The grand opening celebration will begin at 10 a.m. with the first 100 guests receiving a free hot dog served personally by Fatone, followed by a ceremonial hot dog cutting at 11 a.m. Visitors planning a Universal Orlando getaway can utilize Get Away Today to arrange their trip and enjoy this new dining option during their visit.
