hey, phuckers, iowa rocks balls. as a matter of fact the best pizza i've ever had was in iowa at a little mom & pop joint. they had a backroom w/ arcade games & two pool tables. as a teenager this place was partytownusa. great grub, lenient with us young dickheads, & many of us worked there. i was a delivery guy from time to time. we'd stash our supplies in the men's restroom & have a pool shooting party. this went on for a few yrs. super great pizza. no i will not give up the name or address. y'all are screwed, go to nyc           

We had a place like that in my college town. I can't remember if the pizza was any good (probably not), but when you've got a couple of pitchers on the table to share with friends, good tunes cranking on the jukebox and you're waiting for your shot with a pool cue in your hand, it may as well be the best pizza in the world.

I built a prison in Burlington Iowa.  I actually enjoyed myself there.  In the summer we got rafts and inner tubes to ride on and a cooler of beer, maybe a flask or two and float down the river.

hedonist,

back in iowa there could be a small town w/ just less than 500 residence. sure there could be a town 10-20 miles away w/ more people. if you are running a gas station deli, in a tiny ass town, it'd be in your best interest to have something decent. at least that's how i see it

In my college town, we had a little place called Four Star Pizza.  They had what they called the General's Special - a general sized pizza (24" diameter), 20 wings, and a 2-liter for $16.  My roommates and I would order that a couple times a week.  It probably wasn't that great of pizza, but when you're a starving college kid and $4 gets you 4 or 5 giant slices, 5 wings, and some soda to wash it all down... you'd take the Pepsi challenge against Eric Repert any day.

The best fried chicken I've ever had came from a gas station.

Gems and rhinestones!  The kind that are encrusted around the anus of a treasure hoarding troll who doesn't know the meaning of the word "bathe".
But at least we know so and don't think otherwise!

Skunk river.  Locals told us that the MS was too dangerous to tube down, so we hung with them.  Yes to actual Burlington.  We built the prison in Burlington and shipped it to Fort Madison.

Not Raiders.  My company rented an old precast yard off of Gear ave.  I dug that Snake rd in downtown.  That was cool.  Brewery was there too.

I remember you saying you worked on the prison here in my little shithole of a hometown, as well.

You did notice no pigeons hanging around that gas station, right?

Squab is delicious.

i did a short stint at raiders precast. one of the worst jobs i ever had. i suppose it could of been a better job if one's coworkers weren't fucking convicts living in halfway houses. no disrespect to anyone going thru such a thing. they never had pizza for us on fridays.

don't bother screwing in bolts all the way that are connected to cables that are connected to a crane that lift giant slabs of bridges & overpasses. those dimwits wanted someone to get crushed. pizza? they don't need no stinkin pizza

snake alley is interesting to drive down in a 1970s boat of a car loaded w/ idiotic teenagers, pizza & beer

I've built prisons/structures in 4 countries,  20+ states some multiple times.  Remember that I moved every 6 months to a year and did that for 15 years.

I've got some stories. Pics too!!!  Hence my food stories!

Last night, I was about to fix up some Tilapia, mashed sweet potatoes, veg, when my lovely bursts through the door surprising me with pizza.

PIZZA!

What joy! It was like Christmas morning.
