NFL - Papa John's Pulls NFL-Associated Ads Citing 'Negative Consumer Sentiment'

[SF1900]

people order pizza during football games. i used to work at a papa johns when i was 16. we would get slammed on Sundays and any other football game. so it would make sense to market towards football

Yeah, but do other pizza chains market to the NFL the extent that PJ's do? If not, they still have managed to stay relevant.

The NFL is boring.   The games are not entertaining any more and people have a lot more options than in the past.

“They were fighting in the locker room, and that’s the only all-black offensive line in the NFL is the Raiders,” Grimes said.

“So, they were in the locker room, and Derek Carr is a bible-thumper to the fullest. And so he was basically trying to force the players to read the bible before the game, and do all this stuff and they were like, ‘No, no, no, that’s you.’ And so he was so upset about it, when the whole offensive line was said they were going to kneel, he was like, ‘No, you’re not kneeling. No, no. This is America, you’re going to stand for the flag.’ And they got in a fight in the locker room, so when they came out to play, they basically had a plan.”
