An Oscar Meyer Wienermobile crashed into the home and outdoor deck of Nick Krupp in Racine, Wis. on Friday morning, July 17, 2009. According to a witness, the vehicle was parked in the driveway. The driver lurched the vehicle forward instead of backing out of the driveway, hitting Krupp's deck and cracking the foundation of his house. (AP Photo/Journal Times, Tom McCauley)

MOUNT PLEASANT, Wis. — One southern Wisconsin homeowner is probably not in love with the Oscar Mayer wiener. The famed hot dog's Wienermobile crashed Friday into the deck and garage of a home in Mount Pleasant, about 35 miles south of Milwaukee.

Police said the driver was trying to turn the Wienermobile around in the driveway and thought she was moving in reverse. But she instead went forward and hit the home. It sat in the driveway as if it were stuck in the garage Friday afternoon.

No one was home and no one was injured. No citations were immediately issued.

Both the home and vehicle suffered moderate damage, which Oscar Mayer spokeswoman Sydney Lindner says insurance will cover.

Police hadn't been able to speak to the homeowner as of early Friday evening.

It's happened to every young woman at some point or another. Getting too excited and letting a gigantic wiener run wild.

She just needs to get back in the saddle again and brush it off.

Did it penetrate the door or was it the garage?

Husband: Honey, there's a giant wiener in our garage.
Wife: I thought the gardener wasn't coming until Tuesday.

Ramming it home rather than pulling out safely?

Was Levi Johnston driving?

Russia does not appear to be visible from that house.

"Oscar Mayer, hot dog legend, dies at 95"

Fortunately, he did not live to see this tragedy.

I think it's unfortunate he didn't get to see it.

Ok folks everybody calm down. The house clearly appears to be over 18 years old and is of age. However it seems the wiener mobile entered without consent.

This act does appear to be criminal and as you can see as a result of this act, the wiener mobile is being held under "House Arrest"

That's what happens when you have to many hormones put into your meat.

Has the home owner considered turning the garden hose on these two?

Come on. The house was askin' for it. Like somebody said before, did you see that paint job?
