I confess that I can't even remember what Imo's Pizza was like, other than the thin crust. All that mattered was the beer next to it.
At least it didn't make me sick like Talayna's Pizza, which had to have stored its ingredients near rat poison. So I guess chalk one up for Imo's.
Ah, Talayna's. Remember the deal they had where if you and another person could finish the giant pizza in an hour, you got $1,000? Or maybe it was $750, but $1,000 if you downed a pitcher of beer or soda with it. I think that was it. A friend and I were thinking of trying, so we went there one day just to try their pizza in general and see what we thought. We just ordered a regular large pizza, and I found it rather tasty...until my friend got a really weird look on his face, then reached into his mouth and pulled out a 2 inch bolt. We called the waitress over and told her about it, and her reply - word for word, which I'll never forget - was, "Well, what do you want me to do about it?" Um...I don't know, pretty sure it should be free, at least? Nope, we already ate half the pizza! There wasn't anything wrong with that half! Finally, the best she would agree to do was take half off, as long as we didn't eat anymore. Yeah, you don't have to worry about that.
Vowed I would never go there again, but when two other friends decided to try the challenge, I wanted to see how it went. The pizza looked totally different than the one I had ordered previously - much thicker. My friends were enjoying it at first, then they said all of a sudden the taste and texture changed. It became really gummy and hard to even chew. They ended up getting through less than half of it.
Never went to that place again.
