Sheeran shared a video documenting his grunt work to his Instagram. The shift started off with an employee stating, “We’re gonna have Ed Sheeran here at the motherf—-er Wiener’s Circle and I’m gonna teach that wanker how to make a f—ing hot dog.”

As screaming fans scramble to get a glimpse of the “Thinking Out Loud” singer, the same employee tells them to “shut the f— up” and “shove [a hotdog] up your a–.” Even when the insults get directed towards him, Sheeran can’t stop smiling and laughing.

Sheeran captioned the video, “Served hot dogs at @wienerscircle today. This place is legendary is Chicago for serving hot dogs and insulting their customers. I loved it. See you at the stadium tonight x.”

The Wieners Circle teased in a tweet earlier that day who the “special guest” for the day was with a saucy pun on their sign: “Do you want Edchup with that?”

Even that couldn’t prepare fans. The announcement sparked a huge turnout spanning outside the stand that the establishment deemed as “wild” in another tweet.

A follow-up Instagram post made by The Wieners Circle sharing Sheeran’s video said, “Our newest trainee, a British lad by the name of Ed Sheeran, has a lot to learn, but he apparently has quite a following #edsheeran @teddysphotos.”

Sheeran’s dedicated following led him to break the all-time attendance record at Soldier Field, according to a tweet from the venue, with 73,000 people. He beat out Taylor Swift, who had performed a few weeks earlier, and Beyoncé, who had performed the previous weekend.

On Sunday, the singer reflected on his stay in Chicago with another Instagram post, saying, “Broke the attendance record at Soldier Field in Chicago this weekend, played a subtract show to a pin drop silence crowd, got shouted at serving hotdogs, and got a new tattoo.”

Sheeran ended with a cryptic note: “Autumn is coming, tell a friend x.”
