Great italian sausage in an unexpected place (sounds dirty)

I went to the Cubs game last night with a buddy of mine who asked me to grab a sausage sandwich for him when I went to get food. Now, I've never even eaten passable food at Wrigley, but this sausage sandwich was the bomb.

It was Scala's, served with red sauce, fried peppers and onions fresh off the grill, and hot giardenera. It was on a hot dog bun, and it would probably have been better supported on an Italian roll, but the flavors were awesome, the sausage was extremely tender, and the race to eat the sandwich before the bun disentegrated under the sauce and oil made things interesting.

Apparently only a few stands sell this, and the one I went to was downstairs beneath section 226. I don't want to say that this is on a par with Johnnie's, because I didn't taste the sausage alone, but the combined ingredients and the tenderness of the sausage made it one of the best sausage sandwiches I've had.

Saps

I had this same sandwich Monday night at Wrigley from the same stand (our seats are in Aisle 226). I agree with your assessment on flavors - a great improvement from most (abysmal) food offerings at Wrigley over the years. Good flavor, good texture, great toppings.

But I couldn't get past the poor quality of the bun. Tasteless, without texture, and coudn't stand up to its contents. I wound up more or less eating the entire sausage with my fingers, since the bun was so soggy by the time I got back to my seat that it basically disintegrated. If they had a decent bun, I'd be back regularly.
