In his never-ending desire to serve you, his loyal subjects, the Prince of Pittsburgh has mounted a quest for the holy grail of dive bar sustenance - the perfect pizza. Henceforth, The Prince will eat as much pizza required to make a comprehensive evaluation of the pies offered by bars, restaurants, and parlors in the four-state area of his domain. Six attributes will be evaluated on a 1-10 scale for a possible perfect score of 60.

The Prince evaluated a Pepperoni Pizza:
9 - Appearance
7 - Cheese
6 - Sauce
4 - Crust
5 - Topping Amount
7 - General Flavor
38 - Total Score
The crust looked good, but it was a workout for the jaw to chew. My other numbers may have been higher if I hadn't had a problem with the crust.
The Prince's Guest also rated a pepperoni pie:
9 - Appearance
8 - Cheese
6 - Sauce
6 - Crust
7 - Topping Amount
7 - General Flavor
43 - Total Score
The Superfans have challenged Tiny to his own games. Each week they play along on The Movie Game (5 points for the title, 1 point for the year it was released) and The Music Game (3 for the song title, 2 for the artist, 1 point for the release year).

Hulk Hogan
The Rock
Andre the Giant
The Sports Guru ranked them:
#1 Macho Man Randy Savage & Nature Boy Ric Flair tied
#3 Hulk Hogan & The Shiek tied

Lots of stories of interactions with Bruno - Keith V played football with his son, Tom M's Mom worked for him. Every kid who grew up in the 80's loved The Hulkster.

It was a tight race, but Mr. Rogers edged out Michael Keaton by a single vote at the last minute. Write-in votes for Donnie Iris pushed him into 3rd place as Christina Aguilera, Jimmy Stewart, and Dennis Miller tied for 4th. Honorable mention goes to Jeff Goldblum, Joe Mangianello, Kurt Angle, and Noah Wylie.
