It's a little before my time, however I do remember when the stuffed crust first came about. And do I still love them stuffed crusts!!!

Book It was the was the only reason I read. Free personal pan was an incentive to read!!! They need to make shirts that say I read books for pizza. and on the back add the book it logo. lol

No doubt! I always had the pin with the little stars that would fill up for your free pizza. And I would totally get that shirt lol What a great program back then!

It has been to long, were the stars stickers added to the pin? I vaguely remember that I will never forget the pizza though. I remember another family and mine rolling into pizza hut with 9 kids total redeeming the personal pizzas. It was always a mad house when we showed up.

The stickers were totally added to the pin. Here’s the best example I could find that was similar to mine:

A picture similar to that sparked my memory of what it looked like. What year did you graduate? This may have been something they roled out later or phased out.

I was later, I would've been in during mid to late 90's. I want to say miner was the left. But my wife mentioned she remembered the pins and thought hers might have been candles on the right. She even said she might still have hers somewhere.

That makes total sense. These ones definitely look newer and a lot fancier than the one I had in my pic. I had no idea it even went on that long, I had assumed it ended shortly after they offered it in our school. Really cool to see the evolution of it. Also like the idea of your tees ;-)

I don't eat Little Caesars or Pizza hut. The quality is just not there for me. But I would buy the Pops because they have been around so long. I use to eat them years ago

Yeah Priazzo and stuffed crust not even in the same league, if you have good tasty dough stuffed crust is not necessary that and dips...

I never heard of Pete before. Thanks for the info on the character; it would be neat to see him in pop form. The chucky cheese characters would be pretty cool to see as well.

I always order the stuffed crust, they charge a bit more for it but it is worth it. I think if they do the Pizza Pete they should let Pizza Hut sell it.

But if they don't offer pizzasurance then will be all full of grease and they won't handle the figure with care. Oh wait, that is dominoes. ;-)
