Well knowing that I am from the Louisville area and a hugh basketball fan, I had to post this. Even though I am not a Louisville Cardinal fan, it was nice to see them win the National Championship this year in basketball. Most of my family are die hard Card fans and still have some friends that attend the University of Louisville. Well if you did not know, one of the worlds largest pizzaa chains, Papa John's, is based out of Louisville. Well they teamed up with Louisville to make a one of a kind, collectors edition, National Championship Pizza Box.
The National Champion box is only available throughout the Louisville market. Papa John's founder/CEO John Schnatter told the publication that the special boxes are available while supplies last.
He added: "We are excited to roll out this special pizza box to honor the outstanding achievements of the University of Louisville men's basketball team With Papa John's headquarters based in Louisville, it was exciting to watch our hometown Cards win the national championship, which was the pinnacle of what was an incredible year for U of L athletics."
I have a friend who was fortunate enough to get his hands on the box and keeping it a collectors item. Some fans have been noted ordering 5-10 pizzas at a time to get their hands on it, and one fan ordered from several Papa John's to make sure he could get one. My hometown is 30 minutes away from Louisville and my mother ordered a Pizza to my friends in hope she could obtain the box. It's that serious.
