Drew Weisholtz — Tue, 04 Jun 2013 15:24:36 +0000

Domino’s is taking pizza delivery to new heights. Literally. The pizza chain has tested out the ‘DomiCopter,’ which is exactly what you think it is: a helicopter that delivers pizza. The DomiCopter took flight last month just outside of London, armed with a pair of pepperoni pizzas. And while the fabulous flying machine, operated by [...]

Guy Cancels Pizza Pickup Because Hockey Game Went into Overtime

Wes Glinsmann — Tue, 07 May 2013 12:58:14 +0000

Sports fans have a lower threshold for the word “emergency.” While most people reserve the term for events like heart attacks, major world crises and running out of toilet paper, sports fans know that true emergencies are things like double overtime and last minute drives. So you can forgive one loyal hockey fan for having to change dinner plans based on the fortunes of his favorite team.

Bonehead Pranks Ex-Wife By Placing 18 Fake Pizza Deliveries to Her House

Drew Weisholtz — Fri, 01 Mar 2013 21:00:51 +0000

To make a joke about how Bryant Smith will be convicted in 30 minutes or less is like picking the lowest hanging fruit on the comedy tree, but we’re not all that tall, folks. The 47-year-old suburban Chicago man was charged with felony stalking after he made phony orders for 18 pizzas from four different [...]

Drunken Thief Was Too Bombed to Rob Little Caesars

Jeremy Taylor — Fri, 18 Jan 2013 17:15:45 +0000

Like so many of us have done, Ryan Hopkins made a bad decision while drunk. Unlike the rest of us, he decided to rob a Little Caesars. But the stick-up didn’t go quite the way he had (probably not) planned. It got off to a good enough start — Hopkins stumbled into a Lexington, Ken., [...]

Man Crashes Car Into Pizzeria, Orders Pizza

Jeremy Taylor — Mon, 14 Jan 2013 15:20:50 +0000

When life gives you lemons, you make lemonade. And when life steers your car straight into a pizzeria, you order a large pie. That’s the lesson out of Lincoln, Nebraska, where recently an elderly man got his foot stuck on the accelerator of his Honda Fit and barreled straight through the front door of Valentino’s pizza restaurant. Luckily [...]

Pizza Hut Perfume Is an Actual Thing That Is Happening

Jeremy Taylor — Wed, 05 Dec 2012 22:15:33 +0000

Fact: everybody who isn’t a monster loves the smell of pizza. But that doesn’t mean that Pizza Hut should be making a pizza-scented perfume. Especially because their pizza is exempt from the “everybody loves the smell of pizza” clause. But they’re doing it anyway. It started (and should have ended) as a joke, when Pizza Hut [...]

On a Lighter Note, a Ridiculous Pizza Commercial

Emerald Catron — Tue, 06 Nov 2012 23:02:31 +0000

Let’s all just pause and think about what we really want this election day. Pizza, right? Here’s a video excerpt from comedian Vincent Gargiulo’s film ‘KNFR From 7:00 – 7:30.’ We think this is probably one of the best songs ever written about pizza. It’s certainly the best dance accompanying a song about pizza ever. [...]

Pizza Hut Gets Politically Aware with 'The Pizza Party'

Cameron Simcik — Wed, 10 Oct 2012 21:15:47 +0000

Pizza Hut has been on our semi grossed-out minds a lot recently, what with their new Kit Kat Pops and Cone Crust Pizza, among other heart attack-inducing creations. But to our surprise, the big cheeses over at the pizza chain have redeemed themselves in our books.

Mike Adams — Wed, 10 Oct 2012 18:19:37 +0000

Everyone has something they'd like to ask the candidates at the next presidential debate. But if you're brave enough to stand up in that highly televised forum and ask the age-old question “Sausage or pepperoni?”—free pizza for life shall be your reward.

Pizza Hut and its Pizza Party announced on Tuesday that they will provide a lifetime of free pizza—the option of one large pizza a week for the next 30 years, or a check for $15,600—to any attendee who asks either candidate this simple question during the live town hall format presidential debate on October 16 at Hofstra University.

Have Your Pizza and Drink It Too With This Pizza Beer

Mike Adams — Fri, 05 Oct 2012 20:20:23 +0000

SOLD. There is no better way to spend National Pizza Month than by drinking mass quantities of craft beer and committing unspeakable acts with, well, beer and pizza. Now, before you guys go humping the pepperoni off of that large pie that you just had delivered, you should know that the unspeakable acts that we [...]

Enjoy Some Snake On Your Slice With Everglades Pizza

Dan Seitz — Sat, 29 Sep 2012 21:30:25 +0000

Pineapple not exotic enough for you? Jalapenos leave you cold? Then if you’re looking for an unusual pizza, look no further than a southwest Florida pizzeria known as Evan’s Neighborhood Pizza, and their Everglades pie. The pie comes with hearts of palm, called “swamp cabbage” here, frogs’ legs, alligator, and the crowning glory, filets of [...]

Pizza Hut's Latest Crazy Creation: 'Kit Kat Pops'

Cameron Simcik — Sat, 29 Sep 2012 13:30:32 +0000

We’re starting to think Pizza Hut has gone off a crazy cliff recently, what with their introduction of the Cheeseburger Crown Pizza and Cone Crust Pizza. It’s like Mr. Pizza Hut (he exists, right?) is trying to make some fantasy food magic happen, but it doesn’t quite seem to work. So when the popular food chain unveiled its latest creation, ‘Kit Kat Pops’, we shouldn’t have been surprised, right? Wrong. This sugary, chocolaty, strangely-looks-a-little-delicious thing came out of left field, once again.

Pizza Hut Menu Now Includes Pizza With Crust Made of Stuffed Cones

Jeremy Taylor — Wed, 26 Sep 2012 13:00:52 +0000

The new Cone Crust Pizza from Pizza Hut– with a crust made of 12 calzone-like cones stuffed with either cream cheese, honey mustard chicken, or both — really is the perfect dish to push the US obesity rate over the illusive 75% mark. But, alas, it’s only available in the Middle East. Perhaps Pizza Hut [...]

Pizza Cone Crust Pizza — Awesomely Gross or Grossly Awesome?

Cameron Simcik — Tue, 25 Sep 2012 20:58:24 +0000

Remember when we introduced you to the Pizza Hut Crown Crust Pizza? We’d like you to meet Pizza Hut Middle East’s newest massive calorie bomb, the Cone Crust Pizza. Sounds innocent enough, right? WRONG. Wrong wrong wrong. Heaven help us all.

Woman Has Only Eaten Cheese Pizza For 31 Years

Jeremy Taylor — Wed, 15 Feb 2012 14:25:29 +0000

We’ve all briefly contemplated an all-pizza diet, usually after biting into a particularly tasty slice. Englishwoman Claire Simmons has been living that dream for 31 years. Not so surprisingly, it plays out like more of a nightmare. The 33-year-old has what is known as selective eating disorder. Meaning, if she is presented with any food that isn’t [...]

Finally, Pizza Beer Exists

Dan Seitz — Thu, 09 Feb 2012 17:00:53 +0000

Confucius once said “Beer and pizza go together like beer and pizza.” He said it during his later years, he might have been losing his quotability by that time. Anyway, beer and a slice go so well together we’re a little surprised it’s taken so long for somebody to combine the flavors of pizza into a beer.

Thankfully, forgoing a gr

Pizza Wars! Man Drives Jeep Through Rival Restaurant's Sign [VIDEO]

Don Deane — Wed, 01 Feb 2012 17:09:14 +0000

A man was arrested after allegedly driving his Jeep through a pizzeria’s sign that displayed a message referencing a rival pizza joint. You want some extra glass shards on that pie? According to officials, Ryan Fleckenstein demolished a sign outside of Vito’s Avenue Pizza in Buffalo, New York. Fleckenstein is the son of the former [...]

'Pig Out' With the Angry Birds Pizza [PHOTO]

Jeremy Taylor — Mon, 28 Nov 2011 21:51:25 +0000

Angry Birds and pizza — two of modern life’s most addictive things — come together in this nifty photo, which was posted on Deviant Art user Ilovetohavfun’s account. As you can see, the cardinal bird topping the pie is made from mushrooms, olives, red peppers and pineapples. If pizza wasn’t so yummy, we’d be reluctant [...]

Pizza Face-Slapping World Record Set by Two Girls [VIDEO]

Jeremy Taylor — Tue, 23 Aug 2011 20:38:30 +0000

Erin O’Keefe and Amy Milano set an officially-sanctioned world record by slapping each other in face with slices of pizza a combined 174 times in 15 seconds. Although it’s far from the grossest thing we’ve seen two girls do in an internet video, it can’t be good for the complexion. There are all sorts of other [...]
