Remember when Pizza Hut had the Book It! program in public schools? If you read X number of pages/books you’d get a free personal pan pizza. In our town Pizza Hut was like a Michelin-starred restaurant that we only got to go to once in a blue moon. Getting a free pizza was like being touched by god.
Just the other day I had a memory of being in Pizza Hut with my mom and the server coming around telling every table that the Gulf War had just begun. I immediately lost my appetite and I resent that server to this day for it.
Apparently, Book It! Was revived a few years ago. I don’t even know if there’s a Pizza Hut nearby, though.
