Fact, I spend anywhere from 5 to 10 hours online, daily. It seems every aspect of my life is affected somehow by the Internet. From electronic gizmos to cars, I shop for everything I need online. Well today I conducted an experiment of sorts. I usually like Pizza Hut pizza best when it comes to delivered food, and the convenience of online ordering just means one less person to talk to and less of a chance of my order being wrong. Well, today I thought I would try something different. After being swayed by Papa John’s 3 Meat Italian Pizza ads, I thought I would order that instead. Now I don’t like Papa John’s at all, but I thought I would give them another try since they spent all that money on their advertisement… but Keely is still hooked on the P’Zone from Pizza Hut. So a competition was born. Which pizza place would bring us our dinners the fastest?
6:59pm I submitted my order on the Papa John’s website: One Large Italian 3-Meat Pizza. The Papa John’s store is 3.4 miles from my house. 6:59pm still, I place the order on the Pizza Hut website: One Pepperoni P’Zone and a single order of Cinna-sticks. Pizza Hut is 3.0 miles from my house. It was probably 20 to 30 seconds between submitting each order. The race was on.
7:35pm the doorbell rings. And the winner is… Papa John’s… but wait, what’s that pulling up in front of my house less than 20 seconds later? None other than the Pizza Hut guy. Considering the 20 or 30 second lapse in time from submitting the orders, it was a dead tie! But now comes the social awkwardness of the two pizza guys meeting face to face. I have a feeling this is what it feels like to get caught cheating. What were they going to say to each other? Would there be a fight? What was going to happen? Here’s what happened, the Pizza Hut guy went up to the Papa John’s guy… and shook his hand. Now I don’t know if he was conceding defeat, or if there is some secret society of pizza delivery guys, but this mysterious act of kindness reminds me that no matter what differences we may have with other people, no matter what we look like on the outside or what side of the tracks we come from, deep down inside… Papa John’s pizza will always suck! I now remember why I stopped ordering from them in the first place. The pizza was so bland. Long live Pizza Hut!
I check out your website from time to time. Your posts are hilarious…this was the funniest one so far! Love it.
Sometimes I question why we are friends, then you do something like this and totally redeem yourself.
maybe I didn’t know any better, or maybe I knew all too well…
