What an idiot.

178 pizzas for Bob Dylan’s stage crew?

If each person eat a half a pizza, that would mean that Dylan has a crew of 356 people.

Takes a lot of stage hands to muffle that voice.

(Apologies to Dylan fans).

Nothing Was Delivered

Bob Dylan is great considering he can’t sing and can’t write lyrics.

Take your pick, Frankie Boy, my loss will be your gain

Speaking of U-Mass a few post back I saw Dylan there during a school sponsored outdoor concert back around 1990.

Probably THE worst concert i ever saw....
Phish was backing him up and with the throngs of smelly hippies there i needed to bath in a tub of bleach later that night.

At least it was a free show.....i think.

“Trusting” doesn’t cover it; just plain lack of any business sense.

Any pizza joint I’ve ever been in, and that is plenty f them in at least 21 states, has always been cash up front when ordering. That is whether ordering at the counter to eat in or take out; or phoning from a motel.

Locally, even phone orders are CC verified over the phone &/or the name and phone number taken, and called back before the pizza is even put in the oven.

Sean McElligott, manager of Antonio's in Amherst, said the store was "too trusting" when a man in his 40s wearing Bob Dylan backstage concert credentials came in and asked if they could produce 178 extra-large pizzas to feed the singer's concert crew, The (Springfield, Mass.) Republican reported Thursday. "We stayed there until 5 in the morning making the pizza,"

5am? 30 minutes or it's free...
