Think your food costs are high? Well, think again.

An Alabama Domino’s Pizza franchisee will give away 2,000 medium one-topping pies Dec. 11-12 to the 8,000 citizens of Guntersville, Ala. The giveaway is in celebration of the local football team’s 4A State Championship.

Although Domino’s won’t be setting any world delivery records here — Papa John’s set that mark when it delivered 13,500 pizzas to one function in June – the Guntersville residents certainly appreciate the gesture.

‘Nobody in our county has ever made it this far in the playoffs, and football is king here. So when we started winning, we knew we had to do something,’ said Jason Upton, the 4-unit Domino’s operator. ‘We are all just so proud of our team. And this is a small town, so people want to celebrate.’
