Default ballpark tipping

If you are at a baseball game and you buy a hot dog from a vendor who is walking around the stands, should you tip?

i would have never thought to tip here just like i dont tip at mcdonalds, but i could easily be wrong.

editted to add that i would go to the next dollar but just for not wanting change, if it was 3 even i wouldnt tip, 275 or 250 id pay 3.

In my experience most people do tip at least rounding up the cost to the next dollar, sometimes adding another dollar or two.

I usually tip, but I'm a season ticket holder, so there are long-term benefits for such things. If you can't spare the money, you shouldn't be buying a dog at the yard anyway. Brown bag it and spare yourself a little embarrassment.

It didn't used to be a tipping job, I don't think. But nowadays anyone who can tape a label on a jar is asking for tips. At least the vendors in the stands shlepped something right to your seat. I don't think they expect tips, though. They seem pleasant enough when you stiff them.

And you're not only dumb enough to indulge them, you're also arrogant enough to expect us to feel embarassed if we do not.
