(Keenesburg, Co.) - Flora Zimbelman says it all started 54 years ago when she put an uncooked hot dog in her sister’s suitcase.

"I don’t know what made me do it. The devil I guess," she said.

Flora’s sister, Rose, found the hot dog when she opened the suitcase back up in Idaho, where she lived at the time.

"She mailed it back to me telling me to keep my garbage at home," said Flora.

The game was on.

In the years that followed, Flora would find a way to sneak the hot dog back into Rose's life. And Rose would find another way to sneak it back to Flora.

"I found it under my pillow once, I found it in between the drapes and once I found it in the kitchen drawer," said Flora.

Flora still has that hot dog. It looks just about as disgusting as you might expect.

Yet, earlier this year, Flora's sister, best friend, and victim of her continuous pranks, lost her battle with cancer.

Flora says she misses her friend, and even though it’s difficult to look at, she’ll still show you the hot dog and tell you the story behind it.

That's a cute story. I'd imagine it would kinda stink after awhile, though so I'd wanna use something else. Haha

AAWWW, that was a cute story. Weird, but cute.

I find it more creepy than anything...and as always, I could make a lot of really immature jokes about this...but I'll save you all the pain. Haha. I would say I'd think of something more odd than a hot dog to pass back and forth for 54 years...but, as insane as I am...I simply can't. I'm stunned. tongue.gif

That hotdog looks sick. Kind of makes me want to gag. I wonder how many times it was passed back and fourth. I wonder if they kept records of it's exchange?

That is such a cool story!

aww thats awesome

i think thats nice they could have used something not so icky but its still a good idea

laugh.gif that's so cool. If she wanted to be a pain about it and really win the hotdog war, she could have buried it with her sister (not being disrespectful, it's just something I'd do to my sister if under the same circumstances). They both obviously had good humour.

I have friends , 4 sisters, who for years have been mailing back and forth to each other a crab claw. It will turn up with a birthday present. then go hidden for a few months till it's sent for another reason. I think it's been over a year since the claw has made it's appearance. And the ones that don't have it at the moment aren't sure which sister has it - so it's always a surprise to see.

it was started by one of them - why? just for kicks. 2 live on the west coast , one on the east and one here in Michigan.

I think the lady in the video should have put the hotdog in the coffin with her sister as a farwell.
