LOL, indeed "friendly" service. Don't you even dare ask for ketchup. NO! NO! NO!
Makes me want to experience Wiener Circle in Chicago.
Why on Earth would you ever want to ruin a perfectly good hot dog with ketchup? As for service, George has never been anything but nice to me and my wife, even the first time we both went there. His occasional scraps with his mother (sweet woman, but definitely starting to slip) aside, it's a great lunch spot.

I've never had a "problem" with him either, but you have to admit, it's kinda "quirky" there. My favorite is the price list. (I probably have the prices wrong, but the concept is...)
1 for $2
2 for $4
3 for $6
[snip]
11 for $22
It's kinda funny, why not just say $2 per dog.
And my comments are in fun, and actually sincere that it adds to the character of the place. Not bashing them, I think most people comment about the "friendly service" with a smile and a warm spot in their heart. The hot-dogs are not that great, but it's a Raleigh Institution.
because some of us may prefer ketchup?
or at least having the freedom/option if we want it?
and not be told that we can't?
wow what a novel thought
Remember Seinfeld and the Soup Natzi??? I think of them as the "hot dog natzi"!!! I like it! It is one of those places that you just go with it! Or not!

I don't think of it as Naziish. I think of it as in keeping with proper hot dog etiquette as per the National Hot Dog & Sausage Council - Hot Dog Etiquette

Don't...
Use ketchup on your hot dog after the age of 18.
Mustard, relish, onions, cheese and chili are acceptable.
And besides...Dirty Harry agrees with him. So you gotta ask yourself...do you feel lucky?
