There is no Papa John's in Montreal
The closest is 6 hours away in New York!

Ewww, Papa John's... shitty company and John is a massive asshole.


Basically this. I can't bring myself to support this company even if the incentives are great. #killingesports

If you think about it what your getting is half off pizza from them. That means that they have to be selling these pizzas at a loss for this deal to work.

So by supporting esports and buying pizzas from them this week you are both hurting pappa johns and supporting esports.


It probably won't be at a loss even with 50% off. It really dose not cost alot to make a pizza with how bulk buy and processing works.

You can't honestly believe that they have such an insanely massive profit margin on their product to still be making a profit
after taking 50% off the unit price?


Their large cheese pizza is $12. I can buy a fat bag of cheese, a 5lb bag of flour, yeast, and tomato sauce for about 12 bucks at the grocery store and I can probably make 3 large pizzas with that kind of material. Papa John's is definitely buying in bulk, which makes it even cheaper to make their pizzas, I would venture to say it'd cost them like $3 bucks to make a pizza which means they're still turning a 100% profit even with the 50% off deal.

Yes, and as long as all they have to do is buy ingredients, this all makes sense. Of course, if they have employees or a building to pay for or advertising or financial/legal/administrative costs....

Its team liquids own site it can do what it wants with its site.

And we can complain about it, what do you think teamliquid would be teamliquid without it's community? I'm not really a fan of this.. can't get 50% off pizza and that counter up in the corner looks atrocious :p


If TeamLiquid didn't have it's community then we'd be able to eat our damn pizza in peace and watch Starcraft without having a seizure every time someone presses "GG" too hard on their keyboard.

As much as I love this for Esports as a whole, but why does it have to be Papa John's, they have a disgusting business practice.

Seriously. Base a product on how good it is, not what the people that run the company think. (papa john's pizza's aren't that great but i'll get some for TL lol my family enjoys their pizzas.)

Tiers 7 and 8 are amazing. They MUST happen. I agree with everyone that PJ's execs are awful human beings, but this is for E-sports and its 50% off.

I'm far from a fan of the way Papa John's operates but people here claiming to be boycotting them are 99.9% likely to be complete hypocrites. You think that kind of shit is anything unusual in the corporate world? Do you think that all of the clothes you wear, food and drinks you consume, the car you drive etc etc are all produced by upstanding, honest, paragons of righteousness? To single out Papa John's purely because it was recently under media scrutiny, are you that naive? Go digging and you will find dirt on just about every company. Better start vetting all of your purchases very, very carefully if Papa John's is where you draw the line.
