Twitter Is Going Absolutely Nuts Over That Hill Intern Caught Eating &pizza - Eater DC
"&pizza was quick to respond this morning by unleashing a “Hallway Pizza” special across the fast-casual chain, which has 30 locations sprinkled along the East Coast. A replica of what the intern ate comes topped with spicy tomato, mozzarella, salami, pepperoni, Italian sausage, banana peppers, and barbecue sauce. &pizza writes it’s designed “for meat + attention lovers.” &pizza is opting to keep his identity under wraps, telling Eater “we have been in contact with him but while he’s adjusting to the newfound stardom, we’ve created a GoFundMe so he doesn’t have to worry about buying pies for a while.” As of Thursday afternoon, &pizza’s morning tweet announcing the day’s deal to its 8,500 followers breached 50,000 views and 1,500 likes in seven hours — the brand’s biggest Tweet to date. &pizza also made a big splash on social media last month for donating thousands of pies to furloughed workers during the shutdown. In &pizza expansion news, the brand is bulking up its portfolio near Capitol Hill with a new location coming to Union Station’s food court (Popville spotted signage this week). The 7-year-old pizza empire’s first location sits on H Street NE." - Tierney Plumb
