Taking him to places he loves might not be the best strategy. Why not go on a search for the worst pizza you can find and make him eat it.
LOL!
a) I might have to eat it, too.
b) What I typically find horrible, he loves (cases in point, Dominos, Gino's, Tombstone, etc.)
c) I figure my best bet is to take him to places he loves and let him gorge to the point of sickness!

Maybe your best bet is to amp up the picture-taking. He may despise that so much that he'll be willing to throw the contest.

Post #189 - October 10th, 2009, 2:08 pmReceived an update about about 6:30 a.m. Pre-airport breakfast of champions . . .
Leftover Lou's, Diet Dr. Pepper, Powerade Zero (blue flavor) and the Sports section
Thank goodness for that Powerade (and yes, that is a cup from Bob Chinn's)!

Oh, he likes that, too. Maybe I should bet him that he can't drink only G2 for a month straight.

Post #192 - October 10th, 2009, 9:44 pmThese shots are just in from California . . .
Food Court - Orange County Airport
Destination targeted
Decent selection and that price is for an entire pizza, not just a single slice! I guess the accent mark doesn't add too much to the price
Pepperoni, straight up, as seen on the back seat of the cab
Later, dinner, delivered and resting on the hotel bed (love the remote)
Looks to be pepperoni and sausage
I have to say that I'm beyond impressed with the dilgence on the photography. I never expected to have shots of the Orange County Airport Food Court but in reality, that's more than I could expect from many dedicated LTHers.
This set of shots doesn't bode well for me and even though I stand to lose quite a bit of dough if our boy succeeds, it's stuff like this that'll make it almost worth it if he does.

Well technically, it's airport food-court pizza but that's probably even worse.

Post #197 - October 11th, 2009, 2:06 pmMore updates from California . . .
A leisurely breakfast in bed with some tv and snuggie?
Enjoying the sausage and pepperoni pizza from Stuft, with (apparently) someone playing the banjo on tv
Lunch was the end of the pizza from Stuft . . .
Earning his money
Our boy told me that the other people at his dinner table last night were highly amused by the bet. At the time, they were supping on prime rib and he was drinking glasses of water.
He also mentioned that he's going to make it a priority to order a fresh pizza for dinner tonight.
Updates as they come to me.

I think you should bring him to the GNR dinner at Marie's. We all want to look him in the eyes and see exactly what's possessing him. And learn what he's made of... although now I assume it's only flour, cheese, sausage and Chicago Bear logos. Duh.
All the adoration and fan-dom might freak him out a bit. And, if necessary, I'll bet some of your LTH friends could give him an ol' one-two so he'll HAVE to drink pizza smoothies for a few days and THAT might cause him to wave the white flag. <knuckles cracking>
Or, maybe, he can just enjoy some of the better pizza he'll (probably) be eating for the rest of the month and understand that he is quickly approaching Internet meme-hood.
One other thought... Do you ever question potential business partners about such important things as culinary predilections? There hardly could be anything MORE important, yes?

Are you ready for some football?
This last pic makes me feel like this is a done deal. For many of us, this would be a picture of near misery but for our boy, this was probably a highlight. I don't even need to imagine how magnificent he was feeling in this moment. I know him well enough already. True, there are still 20 days to go but at this point it feels like he's just running out the clock on me.

Post #204 - October 12th, 2009, 6:23 amMaybe you're approaching this all wrong. Perhaps given his clear penchant for crappy pizza, a few trips to Spacca Napoli, Great Lake, or the like would do the trick.

Post #205 - October 12th, 2009, 6:37 amHas he proclaimed his love for any favorite non-pizza foods, Ronnie? If so, you might want to consider having them for lunch in his presence every day upon his return.
Second thought... given that Tombstone pizza is among those he has mentioned, perhaps that will just mean that he's succeeded in suckering you into a miserable eating experience.

This isn't a bad idea except that I could never even get him to one of these places. What we had to do to punk him at Alinea took an incredible amount of effort and there's not even a sign on the door there.dmnkly wrote:Has he proclaimed his love for any favorite non-pizza foods, Ronnie?

Yeah, mainlining on gyros, hot pockets and turkey burgers would probably kill me.jimswside wrote:Only 12 days in Ronnie, hes not even half way there yet. I wouldnt wave the white flag yet.

Highly unlikely. Even sending me the updates is a big effort for him, electronically-speaking. I'm guessing that even filling a Twitter message would be a great burden to him.

Post #209 - October 12th, 2009, 10:40 amSooo...they started calling it "the Hut" because, like a "shake" eschewing the "milkshake" name because it doesn't have any milk, it doesn't actually contain any pizza? Foul!

Post #210 - October 12th, 2009, 11:22 amIf you can get Pizza Boy to eat a Jack's frozen pie spread lovingly with a tube of "Soyrizo" from Trader Joes...I think you might get him to cry "uncle." I tried this combo personally and nearly had to have my stomach pumped!
