Next stop, Mountain Dew and Doritos, fattening up the US populace one promotion at a time.

time to see if i still like chain store pizza


Despite their quality control on the ingredients, I find, in my limited sample size, that my enjoyment of Papa John's pizza is highly dependent on the particular store I order from.


You might even find that it is dependent on which employees are working that day. Though if you're good to your delivery drivers you can always affect the outcome. Last time I ordered pizza a while back I got the driver to swap out my pizza from one that looked raw to one that was pretty good.

They should have turned this down for the big money healthy home cooking sponsorship instead.

Maybe a big grocery company can sponsor teams. You can use your coupon in stores and in turn they'll give you recipes and discounts for healthier eating.

Why are people talking about this as if it's a bad thing? I already like Papa John's more than Dominoes/Pizza Hut/Little Caesar's, and now they're having a 50% off sale to support esports. What's the downside?

Well, there hasn't been enough drama lately. Plus, while we want more sponsors to come to ESPORTS, they better have a perfect track record and follow everything we agree with. Otherwise we are just selling ourselves out or something like that. It makes drama, that's why we do it!

This actually reminds me of a post a while ago about how somebody thought he was doing a great thing by adblocking every stream that he watches, apparently we shouldn't be selling out to advertising and such. Needless to say, IdrA explained how much of a douche that guy was. We really could use IdrA in this thread as well...

P.S. Everyone: I don't know where you will ever get food from, clothes from, or most of your standard toiletries without buying from someone that probably does something you don't agree with. We should support PJs for this endeavor, because if other people see it as profitable to invest into SC2 and other games, the better for us all.


It's perfectly fine to shield yourself from advertising, both by ignoring them or by implementing some techincal solution.

If anyone tells you otherwise, they don't have your best interests in mind.

Dat eSports money, being taken by a pizza company, which in return we get awesome eSports content, which causes us to give more eSports money. *brain explodes*

It's really great to see mainstream companies having a look at esport. Too bad it's US only, I've never eaten Papa John (don't think they are present in Belgium at all). That would have been a major incentive to try a bite of their pizzas.

TLers from the US you better deliver, I wanna see those soooo bad :

Tier 7 - EG pizza eating contest between Machine, HuK, and DeMusliM casted by djWHEAT
Tier 8 - iNcontroL and TLO will switch teams for a week and act as head coaches in an EG vs. Liquid off-race showmatch


Also offering 50% on their products is pretty damn good.

Speaking of "fattening up" the eSports scene, who wants to help me get Optimum Nutrition as a personal sponsor? Sure I'm only Platinum, but if I didn't have to spend 30 seconds on Amazon every other month ordering more Delicious Optimum Nutrition 100% Gold Standard Whey Protein my practice schedule would be more refined and I'd be GM no problem!

That's why the average German spends more than twice as much on food than the average American?

The opposite is true, the trend to buy bio-food and fair-trade products is booming insanely and people deliberately spend more money to buy supposedly more natural and economically fair products.

Also, fast food chains have always been a good deal more expensive here than in the USA, just compare the pathetic German Big Mac to the American one and have a guess who pays more for theirs...



No one compares foodprices to the US... Because in the US food is basically free when compared to about any other country with a similar standard of living....

This is not true, and hunger among the poor is a major if not underrepresented issue here in the States.

Germany is still the nation that spends most on food...

Thanks to Papa John's view on healthcare, I'll stay away from that place. Interesting that sponsors get called if players misbehave, but it's totally cool if teams get sponsored by terrible companies. What a "community".
