Re: Boombozz NY-style pizza FREE to first 75 on Feb. 1

by Derrick Dones » Tue Feb 01, 2011 12:29 pm

Can't get much clearer than this:

To take advantage of the offer, arrive at any participating Boombozz location on February 1st and say the words “I love New York” to your host or server. You will receive one 17 inch New York style cheese pizza for free. Offer valid for dine-in and carryout only. One free pizza per person, per table


Additionally, the location info was clarified days ago:

The Highlands, Westport Village and Frankfort Avenue locations will be offering them.


Thanks. DD

I would have thought that around here it would be virtually impossible to find 75 people who would willingly state "I love New York".

So here it is:

I'd be more excited about Boombozz's events if the details were made clear. Not worth my time reading between the lines trying to figure out what I need to know. All I need to know is this - who, what, when, where, and how? But PR tends to overlook that these days, instead giving me, to quote Faulkner, "sound and fury, signifying nothing."


Matthew, I apologize for the inconvienence and our failure to make it clear. We had a group from Brooklyn come in to Frankfort store today and gave me a good ol "Kentucky ribbin", but had a blast with them and humbled by how much the New York Style pizza reminded them of Di Fara's in Brooklyn. It was also interesting that they said even in New York the word "style' has many variations amongst the pizzerias. Again man, so sorry. We will probably do this again soon, so i will keep you updated!

I can't find the hours on the website


That was a problem I noticed today on the website AND at the Highland's store ~ the hours aren't posted anywhere. Maybe something to think about for day to day operations. However, thanks for the za it was great and will definitely will be back for some of the whole wheat crust offerings.

Macbeth upon hearing of the queen's death says:

There would have been a time for such a word.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day
To the last syllable of recorded time,
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing"

But, I grant that Faulkner would have sounded great if had quoted it.

Easy, Faulkner did write a book titled "The Sound and the Fury". Wikipedia says the title was taken from the Shakespeare soliloquy. And my original post incorrectly attributed it to Hamlet, while it is from Macbeth. Now, back to delicious pizza.

I'm thinking a large, New York-style pie, with eye of newt and toe of frog and plenty of orange grease. :lol:

Has there ever been a poll taken on LHB as to Chicago vs NY style pizza preference?

Something like:

I prefer

NY Style
Chicago Style
Both
Neither
Other

We could sure start one! Would we need to add St. Louis style (square cut, provel cheese) and Louisville style (the Impellizzeri/Wick/Clifton piled high on a thin crust)? How about True Neapolitan? Frozen? Papa John's? :D

What about "Ohio" pizza...medium thin crust, rich "Sicilian" style sauce, lots of PROVOLONE cheese and plenty of sausage and pepperoni, hand processed by lovely Polish Maidens in Parma ? GOD am I hungry.

Good looking pie! Of course I'm sure the Maidens help but considerably. Is it actually from someplace in Ohio or is it a local?

Mark,

That particular pie is from Luigi's, an Akron Ohio staple for over 60 years (since 1949). Discounting that I grew up in the area, it's still one of my all time favorite pies. Get there after 5pm ANY day and the line for a table is out the door...on weekends the line doesn't disappear until ohhhhhhhh around 4a.m.
