Papa John Is Allegedly a Big Drinking Lightweight

He looks tanked.

 

I drank with Papa John once about 6 years ago. Him, his COO at the time, and Jerry Jones were at the Ritz Carlton bar in Dallas. They were doing that Papa Johns tour and were REALLY behind (like they were supposed to be leaving Texas the next day, but Dallas was the first stop). Papa is a lightweight. He drinks a certain type of whiskey (can't remember for the life of me), and gets sloshed after just two drinks. His COO said he can't drink worth a shiat and constantly made fun of him for it. They probably bought us like 6 rounds. He even got mad at the bartender for forgetting one of my buddy's beers.

The COO gave us each a card for a free pizza with his and papa's signature on it. I've still got it somewhere.

 

Also, you should follow the @drunkpapajohn Twitter account. It's gold garlic sauce(d).
