The Texas Rangers are the 2015 AL West winners, and as they get set to begin the postseason on Tuesday, the team's concession stands will begin selling some culinary monstrosities.
There seems like no better place to start than by introducing the cotton candy hot dog:

I can understand having a hot dog at a ball game. I can understand having cotton candy at a game, but using cotton candy as the main condiment on a hot dog? There are some things just aren't meant to be put on top of a hot dog. Ketchup is one of them. Cotton candy is another.
For $26, Ranger's fans can feast on this behemoth:

As to how one person would be physically capable of eating two feet worth of anything, let alone this confection, I'm not sure. This dessert could likely feed a small country.
Like Cheetos? Well, how about Nacho-Cheetos?

No word yet on whether the Rangers will give customers the option of whether or not have their Nacho-Cheetos put on a plate instead of being served out of a bag. But if that were the case, where would the novelty go?
And for anyone who likes meat, meat, and more meat:

With everything they threw in there would it have killed them to include a 32 oz. Pepto Bismol as well?
The food at sports concession stands across America has gotten more grandiose over the past few years, but the Texas Rangers have just taken it to another level. Hopefully, for the sake of Rangers' fans health, the team isn't forced to play any seven game series this postseason.
Everything truly is bigger in Texas.
