The observer has to admit things are slow when one has to focus on cleanup at Papa John’s Cardinal Stadium. But, hey, free pizza is free pizza, right?

During a visit to the stadium, one almost stumbled into a neatly arranged stack of boxes of Papa John’s adjacent to one of Papa’s concession stands.

Eighteen boxes, each of them containing full helpings of cheese and pepperoni on crust, no teeth marks anywhere. Hard as bricks. How long they had been there, since the spring game in April perhaps?

Another theory is that Steve Kragthorpe tried to return the tomato pies several months after a going-away party that nobody attended. Stadium rats apparently aren’t attracted to his leftovers either.

  1. I understand that occasionally the Papa’s location down the street from PJCS drops off a few pies for the construction workers. This is probably what Detective Charlie discovred. Just the facts, mam…

  2. I have no problem at all with your using Kragthorpe and rat in the same paragraph.

  3. I’m surprised that they don’t have an arrangement with one of the food kitchens/charities that could use all of the food that they must dispose of after a game.

    1. That’s a good idea, Keith. I’m amazed the rodents haven’t gotten to it. Hopefully it means there are none at Papa John’s. Not sure what that says about the product.
