Pizzeria Offers Discount to Gun Owners

A pizzeria operator in Virginia Beach, Virginia, is churning out slices for the Second Amendment, offering a 15% discount to customers who bring guns or a concealed handgun permit into his store.

Jay Laze, owner of All Around Pizzas and Deli, started the promotion earlier this month and told the Associated Press that 80% of his customers showed up with guns in response. One of them even arrived with an AK-47. Originally conceived as a limited-time offer, the promotion could become permanent, Laze said.

Man Beats 60 Opponents to Win Pizza Pizzazz

As the co-owner of a sports restaurant, Bradley Corbin is no stranger to competition. So he wasn't intimidated when he faced-and bested-more than 60 opponents in the Pizza Pizzazz Contest at the North American Pizza and Ice Cream Show (NAPICS) recently in Columbus, Ohio.

Corbin, co-owner of Sloopy's Sports Café in Lakeside, Ohio, became the first entrant in the contest's 15-year history to take home the top prize two years in a row. His winning pizza featured chicken, bacon, onions, strawberries and spicy chili sauce. He also won the 2012 American Pizza Championship in Orlando, Florida, earning a spot on the U.S. Pizza Team and a trip to the World Pizza Championship in Italy this spring.

Delivery Driver Hailed as Hero

A routine pizza delivery turned into a life-saving mission when a pizza delivery man in Philadelphia caught a whiff of some deadly fumes and saved an entire apartment building from potential disaster.

According to MyFoxPhilly.com, Richard Souza of Mangia Pizza was making a delivery to an apartment when he noticed a strong smell coming from an adjacent residence. He mentioned it to his customer, and the two quickly called the authorities. A subsequent investigation revealed high levels of carbon monoxide emanating from a heating unit in the vacant apartment. Residents praised Souza's quick-thinking response, and one suggested he get a raise for his heroism.
