    Back when " everyone " was still here. Good thing new smart asses pop up regularly to replace the ones that leave either of their own will, or by force.. Aka as banned.. I feel old watching a the turn over here! Lol

    I tried Papa John's once several years ago - never again!

    The owner is just strange to me; he never blinks in the commercials. I don't trust people who never blink (or blink too often).

    Whomever mentioned UNO's - is that Numero Uno? That was my favorite when we had a local one but can't find any nearby anymore.

    papa john is a wanker.

    he threatened everyone that obamacare would kill his business, so he said he will not pay for his employees' health insurance. all this, while at the same time, paying millions of bucks to advertise on all of the major networks, and pay peyton manning to be in said commercials, all while giving away for free a million pizzas that normally cost $9 each.

    true!!

    plus it is not really a "restaurant" since there is no place to sit. you go in, pick up your pizza, and take it home....

    Of the big 3 pizza chains I honestly would say it's the better one but that isn't saying much. Just fast food pizza. I'd rather make my own.

    Haha! They say it's all in the water but I know it's all about the wrist snap as the crust is tossed up and spun overhead. I didn't even know what real pizza tasted like until I came to jersey.

    If I ever make it back to Gino's in Great Neck (lots of family in the area), I personally invite each of you nearby folks to join me in a shameless chowdown.

    And goddamn if I'm not now craving the thin hot foldover slice.

    Fuckin east coast and their high-falutin pies!

    When we spent a week or so in Columbus, 2008 or so? Katie's Pizza was our go to.

    And, speaking of NJ - Jersey Mike's! It's not the same here.
