Their hot dogs (and burgers) are served in a steamed bun, and "all the way" means mustard, finely chopped onions, and a very thick, meaty chili I've also heard referred to elsewhere as "greek sauce" (and Dick's owners are, in fact, Greek). I've seen this thick chili (it's not something you'd probably eat by itself, too much body) at other places on the east coast, but nowhere else. In the west the chili is more like you'd find in a bowl, just served over a dog or a hamburger. Other area hot dog stands served a similar item, but most of them have sadly fallen before the onslaught of fast-food blandness. To me a hot dog is one like I'd find at Dick's, or one that's grilled, but anything else just doesn't cut it.

I didn't realize it was a regional (aka Unheard Of) specialty until I left the South and the Columbus area. A minor correction, it has to be topped w/shredded cheddar! Local variations have the hot dog chopped up, and sometimes the bun is sliced as well. In high school (many moons ago), I worked at Tavern on the Square (across from Kirven's, for you locals), and we had dishes I thought (at the time) were created just for Scrambled Dogs...I guess they were just oblong relish dishes? We've finally relocated back to the South, and have the Varsity, but it just can't top a Scrambled Dog... Thanks for recognizing the Scrambled Dog!
