He thought it was a 'very good pizza' and enjoyed it a lot. He'd had Pequod's before and said it reminded him of that. The darker the edge, the better, as far as he's concerned. As for non-thin-crust pizzas, he thought it was one of the best of the month.

Congrats to Pizza Boy as surely he's all but won this thing.
I would love to see a ranking of his favorite pizzas. He's practically the authority on pizza in Chicago now!On a journey to find out what the American road tastes like

Stay tuned . . .
Well, we're in the very final stretch and my wallet is already feeling lighter
Last night's dinner was from Lou Malnati's . . .
Large, thin-crust sausage and pepperoni
An old, familiar box and a reminder about the dwindling clock
This morning for breafast, he ate some leftover Burt's and some of the leftover Lou's shown above.
Then, today for lunch, he went to a friend's house . . .
Looks good, right? Can you guess where this is from?
D'oh!! I think he's sending a message here.
Just a few hours to go. At this point, I need a miracle.

Post #455 - October 31st, 2009, 3:35 pmMy little sister Annie says she could take the title of Pizza Girl. And that she might do it for less than Ronnie's bet of low 4 figures. Says she might do it just for the pizza.

That would be real fortitude. After all, Pizza Boy doesn't live with a chef.
Of course, instead of tempting Annie away from the all-pizza diet by preparing forbidden foods in front of her, Big Sister would wind up making gourmet pizza creations that Pizza Boy doesn't even dream of!

Post #459 - October 31st, 2009, 6:39 pmIt's probably too late, but what you might have done Ronnie was to bring in a pizza from Burts or some other fine Pizza purveyor with no sausage on it at all and let the aroma waft in his face. He might have been tempted. Fight pizza with pizza!"Good stuff, Maynard." Dobie Gillis

I don't think anything would have thrown him off-track but this might have been a good technique. Our boy mentioned when the Aurelio's was brought in that if it had been sans sausage, he would have been tempted beyond belief. Of course, I didn't arrange that (or even know about it in advance), so I couldn't have made it happen. Still, that was very late in the game and his resolve was already galvanized by then. It's all hindsight anyway, because the final chapter is now in the books . . .
Day 31, done and done
I haven't seen Pizza Man (yes, he's now officially Pizza Man in my eyes) since this thing ended but I'm sure he's strolling through the parking lot at the Bears game, eating chili, sub sandwiches, fried chicken and . . . sausage pizza!
Payment details are forthcoming.

Correction: just learned via text that his first post-bet food was some wild rice soup (homemade by his wife), which he ate at 4 a.m.

Post #465 - November 1st, 2009, 5:46 pmI was a doubting Thomas. I didn't think Pizza Man would last more than 2 weeks. I doubt I could last 1 week. But one man showed us ultra-human pizza eating fortitude. Pizza Man, I salute you!!!! Thank you for the most interesting, thrilling, intriguing thread of 2009!!!
Ronnie suburban - I thought you had a slam dunk during the first week of October. But this guy is beyond insane. He is a machine. We as a foodie community owe you a debt of gratitude as well for the most interesting, thrilling, intriguing thread of 2009!!!
Kudos to both of you!!!

Post #466 - November 1st, 2009, 6:35 pmAgreed. This was one of the best threads I've ever followed. It had everything...conflict, drama, comedy...
Better than ANY "reality" show on tv. I was riveted all month! Thanks for sharing this and congratulations to Pizza Man!

Post #468 - November 1st, 2009, 7:37 pmRonnie, PM me to work out the details of the side bet. As promised, there is a bottle of Gentleman Jack sitting on my kitchen counter awaiting its rightful owner.
Congratulations Craig, you are truly a pizza eating machine.I used to think the brain was the most important part of the body. Then I realized who was telling me that.
