Chad B Posted June 29, 2018 Report Share Posted June 29, 2018 I am not surprised he will be out of the league. Great length and athleticism, but not much else. He made $4 million as a 22 year old. Just amazing how much these players make based solely on potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FKIM01 Posted June 29, 2018 Report Share Posted June 29, 2018 Bringing the Pizza King conversation here where it makes more sense... I suspected that not all these Pizza Kings you all are talking about are really the same brand and may not be remotely similar. A quick search on Google turned up the following: The Muncie area Pizza Kings: http://pizzaking.com/ Warsaw area: http://www.pizza-king.com/ The ORIGINAL Pizza King in Lafayette: https://theoriginalpizzaking.com/ Rockville: http://www.amorepizzaking.com/ Kokomo: http://www.kokomopizzaking.com/ Terre Haute: http://ballyhoopizzakingterrehaute.com/29320 Jeffersonville & New Albany: https://soinpizzaking.com/ Alexandrian & Tipton: http://www.cardinpizzaking.com/ Winimac: http://pizzakingwinamac.com/index2.htm Rushville: http://pizzakingofrushville.com/ Evansville: http://www.pizzakingevansville.com/ ...and there were a bunch more. It took awhile, but I finally figured out that the site listed as the ORIGINAL Pizza King, really IS the original and lists a whole bunch of Indiana locations: https://theoriginalpizzaking.com/locations . If your Pizza King is not listed here, it's not a true Pizza King. ...and here is the original story of Pizza King: Pizza King Inc., originated in 1956 in the heart of Lafayette, Indiana. Owner Wendell Swartz from Lafayette had an idea to open a pizza restaurant. Wendell’s vision and passion for culinary expertise created the perfect ingredients of Pizza King’s “secret recipe.” Come 1966, when Wendell was ready to sell, whom better to buy the business from him, then his trusted employee who managed his books, Don Schutz. 5 stores were now established when Don bought the business, and he knew he could grow it even more, and he did. Providing customers a fun, relaxed, entertaining experience. Pizza King Inc., is now a family treasured business throughout over 70 plus locations in Indiana. Continually bringing you our delicious, customer satisfaction, fresh wholesome ingredients. We pride ourselves on our specially made ingredients just for us!

Reacher Posted June 29, 2018 Report Share Posted June 29, 2018 Do we know if Swartz and or Schutz were actually Boilermakers? They could be IU grads living in enemy territory. If so, what better way to make a living then off the $ of Purdue folk ? While that ^^^ was some great research, more is needed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milehiiu Posted June 29, 2018 Report Share Posted June 29, 2018 Where Is the Best Pizza in Indiana? Grew up eating Flamingo Pizza, in the Miller (on the Lake) section of Gary. Traditional thin crust.... cut into squares, without asking to be cut into squares. Loved the Cafe Pizzeria too. As a student.... in the late '60's Nick's Old English Hut did not make their own pizza. When you ordered a pizza at Nick's they had it made at the Cafe Pizzeria, and it was walked down to Nick's. I think at that time, both places were owned by the same owner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5fouls Posted June 29, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2018 Pizza King in New Albany used to be a regular stop on the Fouls family dining list.

He's tall and athletic by God's grace, and made good money off that. But, if you want competitors on your side in the playoffs, all I will say is "LOL" when it comes to NV. Not my kind of player. The fact that Chicago released him tells you all you need to know. I wish him well in turning his game around, but I suspect he's too nonchalant for that to ever be a reality.

My son in law is from Madison, Indiana originally but lives in California now. When they visited us a couple of years ago he was excited to see that there was a Pizza King in Angola so we ordered out one night for old time's sake. Unfortunately, the pizza fell way short from what he remembered. I haven't gone back since as there is an Italian restaurant near us, Caruso's, that makes excellent pies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, it's kind of boring now. If I do get it, one of my favorites is adding giardiniera to give it some taste and kick. If my family, especially kids, didn't like it, I wouldn't get it more than a couple of times per year. One of my least favorite is deep dish. Giordano's is so overrated to me. It's a tourist place but a whoop de doo otherwise, IMO. Thin crust with some kick and taste is the way to go IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grew up largely on the B-town pizza joints, Mother Bears, Noble Romans, etc., would hit Chicago and Gino's East, and now am stuck in Texas where the ONE type of food Houston can't do right is pizza. Pizza is to food as basketball is to entertainment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrflynn03 Posted June 29, 2018 Report Share Posted June 29, 2018 Last time I had pizza king it was in evansville a couple years ago and the pizza was not as good as I remember but the hot stroms were on point. The best pizza on that list for evansville should have been Turonis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoHoosier Posted June 29, 2018 Report Share Posted June 29, 2018 Chanello's out east was always one of my favorites. Oley's is a favorite too. Admittedly, I never knowingly had Pizza King. Noble Roman's was decent when it existed on S Anthony in Ft Wayne. Sadly, I can no longer remember any of the menu items. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fantastic pizza. For some reason the newer Newburgh Turoni’s doesn’t hold water to the Eville one. My buddy swears that the ovens have to be ‘seasoned’ which I’m skeptical about but can’t argue against. Maybe somebody else can comment on oven ‘seasoning’.
