Not long ago on The Howard Stern Show, sidekick Richard Christie commented that he was a huge fan of Papa John's Pizza.
Of course, he got major flack for his statement, especially since, well, the show's in New York City, where there's plenty of pizza options that are millions of times better than Papa John's. Stern commented with Flatt and Scruggs' "Foggy Mountain Breakdown" in the background that Papa John's should only be eaten if there's hardly any other pizza options in the town you live in.
Granted, most PJ's are in towns that already have better pizza options, like Pizza Hut, Little Caesars and Domino's. Plus, let's not forget the locally-owned pizzerias that your city has that makes better pies than Papa's.
In the past several years, Papa John's has been falling from grace because of their idiot founder and former mascot, John Schnatter. Several years ago, he angered his employees by saying that he was going to cut hours because of Obamacare. Yet, he's worth over $800 million and lives in a $30 million home near Louisville, KY. He even blasted the NFL because of athletes who kneel for the National Anthem, and because PJ's is the official pizza of the NFL, he's crying that he's losing money.
Now, the Papa's been opening his yapper too wide once again.
It was revealed earlier today that Schnatter used racial slurs in a conference call earlier this year. In the call, Schnatter claimed that Col. Harland Sanders often used the n-word and that in his home state of Indiana, they would drag black people behind trucks until they died. The marketing company Laundry Services, which consulted Schnatter has since dropped Papa John's as a client.
Ya know, in defense of The Colonel, it wouldn't surprise me if he did use the n-word. After all, it was the south. I've seen him in ad campaigns where he's sharing KFC with people of all colors. It was different times back then. But guess what? This is 2018. Papa John's a fucking asshole for saying what he said and people need to avoid PJ's like the plague. Look at Little Caesars: Mike and Marian Ilitch built their business from the ground up. Papa John built his business all because of his daddy's bar.
Life is short. Eat better pizza. Let's get Jet's.... Instead.
