• Delete, nn contest. --Terence Ong 05:25, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
• Keep, looks like the Olympics of pizza world with 400-500 people from 20 countries taking part [2] and has appeared on ESPN, ESPN2, CNN, CBS &c. in the US alone. 2006 is the 15th time to be held so it's no fad. Mentioned in Google directory [3]. And yes, it's a pizza making contest. feydey 13:21, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
  • No, the US team was mentioned on ESPN, etc. and Nickelodeon! Nowhere is it indicated that the competition was broadcast on these channels. Sounds like puffery to me, and besides - it could have been mentioned in passing in the "weird news" section of the SportsCenter, or smth. In my synagogue 400-500 people from 20 countries gather every year for Yom Kippur - big deal! Delete the.crazy.russian (T) (C) (E) 20:48, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
