Guess what day it is?

No, not hump day.

It’s the Dallas Mavericks Are Only a Few Days Away from Selling a Dirk Nowitzki-Inspired Cheeseburger Day!

I know what you’re thinking:

Dirk3
Dirk3

Somewhat sadly, Dirk’s burger—or rather, The Dirkburger—doesn’t quite look like that, even if Dirk’s pictured Dirkburger face is most likely accurate.

Here’s ESPN.com’s Tim MacMahon with the deets:


This had me at “jalapeno beer cheese.”

Really, aside from the misrepresentation of what constitutes a “low, low price,” The Dirkburger sounds delicious. Bacon onion marmalade is a thing, and I had no idea, and now neither my life nor yours will ever be the same.

For those of you who live in Dallas, attend Mavericks games and plan on scarfing down one or two (or five) Dirkburgers, feel free to send us pictures of this game-night sandwich/your edible conquest on Twitter. But remember: consume Dirkburgers responsibly.

The human body can only take so much mustard horseradish aioli.
