_He had transformed the original Z28 into an 825 horsepower dragster doing 9.55 quarter-miles at 141 mph._

John Schnatter just bought a caged 9 second drag car lol…

Very cool story though.

1. cool story, for all parties.

2. really not a fan of the car, but it was never mine to be a fan of.

3. i am one of the least sentimental people i know, so i don’t understand dropping that coin, but, as i said, it was never mine. (nor do i have anywhere near his coin.)

4. good for him. :tup:

Papa John’s isn’t in this area for a reason. Buffalo pizzerias are much better. People know this.

La Nova is average to shitty, at best…better than that papa john’s/dominos shit though.

I was insanely disappointed by Bocce. It is ridiculously hyped.

Never had picassos

Exactly. It’s because they grew up eating shit pizza all their lives so they’ve been conditioned to think it’s good.

Papa Johns is the only franchise pizza I enjoy. But local pizza kicks ass.

Locally we have Rocky’s, TNT, Pizza Junction, Fat Mans, and Francos and Picassos. I’m a fan of LaPizzeria in Kenmore and Mustaschios.

Want delicious pizza shipped?
