DECK THE HALLS (with Pizza)
Having eaten pizza every day of October, the question I hear the most often are "Which were your favorites?" The answers emerged at the 2009 Slicey Awards ceremony. Part award show, part film festival the Sliceys doesn't require formal attire and the only red carpet happens when someone drops a slice of free pizza.As for the awards, all 31 locations were "nominated" but these are the ones that left with the [personally] hand-crafted Slicey Award.
And the Winners Are...
BEST OVERALL -
BEST NEW DISCOVERY -
BEST TASTING SLICE -
BEST PIZZA DAY -
BEST IN SHOW -
