Texas man crosses flooded road to pick up pizza
KENS5 ^ | Oct. 17, 2018 | Cameron Songer

How far would you go when you’re really craving pizza? Rickey McCray posted a viral video Tuesday that resonated with Texans, who have been dealing with plenty of flooded roads with all the recent rains. McCray told KENS 5 that Allen ordered the pizza, but the driver couldn’t deliver it because County Road 330 was blocked on Tuesday due to flooding. They told the driver that they would drive to meet him – and their pizza. Allen can be seen with bags over his legs, wading through water that went up past his ankles.

30 minutes or it's free?

Hilarious but this from Austin libs who have been so very concerned for days with one of their many bike trail flooding. This morning a reporter was out AGAIN and showing a puddle of rain water lamenting how flooded it was and a jogger ran past. Ruined that live shot, LOL.

Of good grief. This isn’t a Texan, but a snowflake import who is either very brave, or more likely very foolish. I mean what’s with the garbage bags.

A real Texan would have an F150. You wouldn’t even wet the rims crossing that “flood.”

For Pizza? NO!

For Beer? Perhaps.

You left out the best part.

>>>wading through water that went up past his ankles<<<

I assume the local NBC Affiliate then hired him to cover Floods and Hurricanes.

That’s a flooded road? Looks more like a puddle. And what part of Texas is this where the numnutz are still wearing baggy pants?

This gave me a good laugh. Neither the pizza delivery guy or the person ordering was willing to drive through ankle deep water!!!

The last “water” I drove through shorted out my oxygen sensor on my Park Avenue for a few days...

Then time to get out the boat if the water is too deep to wade across.

Came here to say the exact same thing. Just pitiful.

Well,

It would depend on the beer?

I wouldn’t step over a sleeping dog for Bud Light.

I wouldn’t get out of my chair for Miller Light.

That wasn’t a puddle, it was running water. No way to know how deep it really is. Could have been washed out and 10 feet deep. Guy is an utter moron.

That’s nothing. My father was an oral surgeon, and several decades ago he wired some guy’s broken jaw shut so that it could heal. He left enough space for the guy to slip in a straw, so that he could get liquid nutrition. The guy actually asked my father if he could have pizza, and Dad said, “Well, if you can get it through the straw, I don’t see any problem with that.” Sure enough, several weeks later the guy came in to get the wires removed...and Dad said, “OK, now you can have your pizza.” The guy told Dad, “Oh, no, doc - I put pizza in a blender and have been having it through the straw several times a week, just like you told me.”

Well actually you can see how deep it is because there is a depth gage showing how deep it is. Such gauges are usual paper enhances on frequently flooded arroyos just so you don’t go driving your F 150 through 6 ft of water.u

It isn’t. But they were still up in arms about their bike trail this evening on the news.

Yeah, the pound is always in the news about something. Too crowded. Some sort of damage. Whatever crisis. They’ll get them to safety. The lake has leveled off today.
