Uh, he ordered it from the wrong city.
So he researched the business but didn’t figure out that it’s pronounced like “Polly eyes”?

Damn...that guy is annoying. Couldn't make it to the actual tasting. He repeats himself more than "that guy" in your zoom meeting.

Pagliai's is a wonderful icon of Iowa City restaurants, a feel good place to eat at... and it's pizza is grossly overrated and overpriced. The crust is pretty good, but the toppings are so skimpy that it makes for a really dry, rather tasteless pizza. If you had a blind tasting contest, it would come in towards the bottom. Also, how can a place called Hamburg Inn have cheap, doughy frozen fries?
This is the second frozen pizza review I’ve seen and I have yet to last long enough to hear what he thinks of the actual pizza. The last one I saw he spent several minutes bitching about how they wouldn’t send him a free pizza to review.

You know you can jump straight to the part where he reviews the pizza, right? You don’t have to watch the whole video.
Personally I think the guy is kind of a douche, and he certainly does repeat himself a lot. But I also kinda find the pizza reviews entertaining.
Not trying to be an asshole here by any means, but I shouldn’t have to explain how to do that.
I decided to tough it out and find out for myself. It took him 6 minutes to finally get around to talking about the pizza. You said I could just jump straight to the part where he actually talks about the pizza. Not trying to be an asshole here, but how could I possibly know that in an 8-9 minute video pizza review he finally talks about the pizza at the 6 minute mark?
If you pulled up an Iowa football game on YouTube, but only wanted to watch the 4th quarter and not the whole game, what would you do? You don’t know exactly when the 4th starts. But you’ll go ahead and move the video forward 75 mins. If it’s still in the 3rd quarter, then you act accordingly. If your move puts it halfway through the 4th, then you move it back.
How old are ya man? Do you watch online videos much? Porn? Cmon now.
His videos on his day trading are funny too. Davey Day Trader Global (DDTG). Guy can be a prick tho.
I was told by the owners daughter it is pronounced Paul E Eye. She was smoking hot and crazy. No pic. She was a lot of fun.
The best part is that every time he's brought up on this board you bitch and complain about him. That's entertaining too so Dave gets me twice!
In 2003 I recieved the best bj of my life from a Pagliai girl. She said she learned her technique in juvenile detention. Glorious.
He’s exactly the same way in person as his vids. Had beers with myself and 3 buddies at the Galt House bar on Derby weekend last year.
Pornhub has a little mark where each new scene starts......or at least I have heard. Pretty neat feature.
You can find a certain point in a football game because there is an order and a sequence to a football game. They play the first quarter. Then they play the second quarter. Then they have halftime. Then they play the third quarter. Then they play the fourth quarter.
With this guy there's not way of knowing when he'll actually talk about the pizza. But this has quickly become not worth arguing about. I think I'll watch some old Kige Ramsey videos instead.
Good lord dude. I’ll put it even simpler for you. Fast forward. If he’s already taken a bite, then rewind a bit. If he hasn’t, fast forward. I feel like you’re purposely trying to make it sound more difficult than it is. It’s 2020, it literally takes a click. Unless you’re somehow watching it on a VHS tape in a VCR, then I understand.
The grandpa, Sam Pagliai, of a friend of mine in HS founded Pagliai's in 1957 in Ames.
I'm pretty sure the family still owns them, but doesn't really do much with the running of the business anymore.
You’re correct. Mankato has the best Pagliai’s. The Iowa City location doesn’t even have cheese bread.
The other half absolutely loves Pagliai’s. Wanted to drive from CR to pick up a few frozen from the restaurant. I said I think they have them in some supermarkets now.

This is the quality content I come to HROT for.
Yes indeed. Still there and pick up frozen Ronza's whenever I go back there. For some reason, students thought it was unique to Kirksville.
Oddly enough, growing up in Granger, IA (just NW of DSM and S of Ames) back in the late 70's / early 80's we had a small bar in town where the owner would let us kids come in during the day to play pool and video games. I could have sworn that old guy's name was Pagliai as well. Wonder if he was related?
Edit: Just out of curiosity, I tried to figure out if i was just hallucinating this whole memory. Turns out the building in Granger is still there and its still a dive bar (Bud's Pub).
