One of the best ideas ever. You could take this nationwide and it would be huge. Most people will never be able to make it to any of these places without it
Such a heartwarming video, loved seeing all these passionate pizza makers in one place. Like a family reunion, all of these business owners deserve nothing but success. Can't wait to go next year.
History made, yet again - wish i was there when that dude super-confidently said our pizza is "exact" - ive never trusted any single word more, that man meant it - respect
“We are only as good as our last pizza”…. That’s the key. Good on that guy. You can lose the crown at any time, the fact that he realizes and is making the changes….. he gets the ralphy stamp of approval
This is epic, many of these hard working small busiesses survived the lockdowns thanks to Dave. You can tell the interactions are genuine af. Really nice to see it all come together like this.
This is TREMENDOUS. I’ve had 5 of the shops attending and all are worthy. Close to Philly so Angelo’s is my #1. But can I say that Al Santillo is the REAL DEAL and him showing up to do this says A LOT about what Dave (and us/we) did for small business during COVID particularly. The world needs more of this.❤
@@WarrenPuffet I flew into LGA that day and drove up to New Haven on Pres' recommendation. He announced the festival a couple days after booking confirmations went through. Was standing in line at Sally's in New Haven for hours in the rain amongst a bunch of Yale douchebags with umbrellas. You go to Yale smartypants?
Growing up in Tampa, this is honestly a dream experience for good mom and pop pizza. I really hope this happens again. I'll be there 🤘 Love El Pres and Barstool. Barstool Fund is amazing and Ill never forget watching the videos when businesses were really struggling.
It’s a shame Tampa has garbage pizza - I didn’t grow up here bit have been for the last 7 years and cannot find a decent pie. I have to resort to Anthony’s coal fire pizza. It’s not bad, but it’s not that great either
@@btebo77 I agree with you on Anthonys Coal Fired. Im in Lithia area and thats the best that I know of. I say "decent" compared to this event HAHA. We have a couple mom and pop places but its all football pizza.
It's no secret Dave is a wrestling fan. And it just dawned on me that he plays a perfect heel. He never hesitates to chirp the crowd and everyone eats it right up.
Even in the rain, this looks like kick-ass fun(!!!) 🙂. HUGE 'Thanks' to Dave, ALL the restauranteurs, and ALL the people who sprung for tix, travel, and accomodations to make this Pizza Celebration a reality!! What A Blast(!!!) 🙂.
Seeing Dave truly care for the people around him and who worked/work for him is refreshing. In todays world most owners/upper mgmt don't care about the people outside of their production. He wants to see them all succeed.
Never thought I'd relate so much to a "bro" sports network CEO. I'm a dude who doesn't even watch sports, really. Thanks for bringing some positivity and fun into the world, man. Pizza forever!
Nobodies perfect. We all have flaws, and being a “good person” is subjective. We all have some kind of skeleton in our closet, or a shirt that’s ten sizes too small.
Dave your a true definition of a man’s man, respectable , honest, and just a good person in general, I hate the fact the media wants to make you look so bad , if people only knew what you really do for small businesses, keep going brother !
This reminds me of when in the Grinch, The Who’s or whatever they’re called were shoving their baked goods in his face 😂 Dave is the grinch but with pizza
Much love to Dave from a fellow Dave from Naperville. Give Miss Peaches some belly rubs for me...I'm missing my pup I rescued just lost him to Cancer. He put up a good fight though.
GREAT JOB PREZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hopefully youll do it again next year & I'll be there. I couldn't cancel my travel plans for that weekend. My idea of a great day!!
that call to the post - was great. you took it to her- she had no answers . pres - looks like a super' ahbeetz' event. - poppin in - from New Haven . slice up !! ~ JDS/CT
You can tell he is the real deal. He remembered every pizza franchise and people involved with every store. God bless. Dave. You should get into politics. I would vote for you for president. Not kidding. 👍
This is awesome, seeing all the small family businesses that have benefitted from Dave's reviews and their hard work. I gotta go to the next pizzafest. FUCK DRAGON PIZZA everyone knows the rules.
Hey editor this video seems to be missing one of everyone’s favorite barstool employees, Rico bosco! Can we get the extended cut with all the best rico moments of the day?
Watching the actual Pizza Places thank Dave let's you know what a good guy he actually is.
How?
It's on camera and they are expected to do so.
@@cjr1881By the amount of small businesses he helped save during Covid.
@@cjr1881 Bitter? mom cut video games?
@@cjr1881four shirt to small guy what's good you failure
Sucks it rained. But all those people and pizza guys still showing up shows how great Dave really is
One of the best ideas ever. You could take this nationwide and it would be huge. Most people will never be able to make it to any of these places without it
Yep, regional pizza festivals!
@@boombam2839yesss! With road crews, I'd join....
Seeing the Santillo’s guy there brought a smile to my face. One of my favorite pizza reviews.

Exactly. If ya know Santillos, then ya know. If ya don't, ya don't.
I loved seeing Al there, such a character!
Love it Dave. Love seeing everyone come together during these hard times, exactly what America needs right now.
Dave Portnoy's a legend.
Truly
hes a snowflake that lets nobodies get in his head. Only traction he ever got was creating drama
To put on an event like this and bring in 50+ ovens blows my mind, I can't put on a kids birthday party without it being a disaster 😂
Dave going around thanking everyone. THANK YOU Dave you’re awesome
What a great atmosphere!! No weather, no haters can ruin family friendly fun! ;)
No weather? It was raining all week.
@@MidiPunkthey meant no weather or haters could ruin family friendly fun
@@MidiPunkreading comprehension isn’t your strong suit.

@@btebo77try Nona Slice House in Saftey Harbor. Best I’ve found in the Bay Area.
6:40 “We are Ready to Go in Florida!” 💪🏻😂👍🏻 His Enthusiasm is Epic.
Absolutely, love it! I hope to visit all these pizza owners! An Angel in disguise.
Absolutely legendary.
I will plan my vacation next year around this weekend.
The community thats grown from simple pizza reviews is amazing. Really positive and helping small businesses its fantastic.
Al Santillo had a real shine to his personality this time around. He seemed really happy. That was nice to see.
It's no secret Dave is a wrestling fan. And it just dawned on me that he plays a perfect heel. He never hesitates to chirp the crowd and everyone eats it right up.
I thought the same thing.
I've always said if Dave was his age he is now in the 80s, he would've made a great WWE manager like the Brain.
Even in the rain, this looks like kick-ass fun(!!!) 🙂. HUGE 'Thanks' to Dave, ALL the restauranteurs, and ALL the people who sprung for tix, travel, and accomodations to make this Pizza Celebration a reality!! What A Blast(!!!) 🙂.
Watching Dave actually talk to everyone like a genuine human is bountiful. You can see how much this means to all the restaurants and staff.
What an awesome experience, love the people and the food looks amazing. Congrats on all the success Dave
That Sally’s member card is legit! So baller. Congrats Portnoy.
Dave has done more for Small Business' and Pizza than anyone ever.... Great Job Prez....
He really is. Its amazing this has turned into such a cool thing,
Definitely more than the Washington Post
dragon pizza guy is watching this and punching thin air rn
Seeing Dave truly care for the people around him and who worked/work for him is refreshing. In todays world most owners/upper mgmt don't care about the people outside of their production. He wants to see them all succeed.
I love you dude. There. It's been said. This intro was GOLD! Nothing makes me happier than watching you crush haters.
Dave meets thousands of people during the reviews. The fact that he can remember the names of the people is insane to me.
I always wanted to see Dave interact with Mark the owner of Lucali, this is cool!
Man this looks like such a good time, I wish I could have gone
Same!
Never thought I'd relate so much to a "bro" sports network CEO. I'm a dude who doesn't even watch sports, really. Thanks for bringing some positivity and fun into the world, man. Pizza forever!
These old school dudes are the best lol
I think Dave is actually a good person lol I wasn't 100% sure for a while there.
He is an asshole with good intentions and good heart. It’s hard for a lot of people to understand
Nobodies perfect. We all have flaws, and being a “good person” is subjective. We all have some kind of skeleton in our closet, or a shirt that’s ten sizes too small.
Don’t forget 80% of the time he’s in character
Other then voting for biden he seems like a great dude
@@jwill294great way to explain him
Dave your a true definition of a man’s man, respectable , honest, and just a good person in general, I hate the fact the media wants to make you look so bad , if people only knew what you really do for small businesses, keep going brother !
Omg that guy who said I just wanted to make sure the shirt wasn’t too tight 😂😂😂😂😂 what an OG 1:44
This reminds me of when in the Grinch, The Who’s or whatever they’re called were shoving their baked goods in his face 😂 Dave is the grinch but with pizza
What Dave did during COVID for small business, he's a hero. I can't imagine what it cost to throw this thing, but he's a real guy.
What a dude! This was super cool to watch. I wish I was there.
Pizza Fest needs to go on the road! One National Tour, everybody knows the rules.
Good job Dave ! The logistical challenges alone deserves a round of applause.
This made my day, i had a smile throughout the video so much passion
Jesus. I cry over dumb shit all the time, but a pizza fest tears me up?
What a fun, heartwarming video
Couldn't agree more.
your shirt is 6 sizes too small
im sorry...this is way beyond fkn cool....no way im missing this if theres another one..
This is amazing. What an event to celebrate family owned business!
1000p can get behind supporting this! Love seeing Dave remeet the owners, so awesome!
I was waiting for the crazy Greek Guy from Toronto to show up. Would have been great.
The photo on that shirt....ROFL!!!! "Talk to the birdie..." 😂😂😂😂
this is amazing. everyone is so excited to be there, and love him so much
Congrats on you're new house it's beautiful Dave
Lol. That guy in the crowd yelled, “Fuck dragon pizza” haha
3:34 “Take two bites” I’m dead 😂
dragon pizza guy punching air rn
Dave is the pinnacle of cool
Dragon Pizza didn't appreciate this
kanye being the soundtrack for the pizza guessing at @12:20 is beautiful lol
It has now come full circle to where Dave is influenceing how pizza is being made.
Dave's hoodie game is on point
Much love to Dave from a fellow Dave from Naperville. Give Miss Peaches some belly rubs for me...I'm missing my pup I rescued just lost him to Cancer. He put up a good fight though.
Dave, a man of the people! Keep up the great work brotha
GREAT JOB PREZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hopefully youll do it again next year & I'll be there. I couldn't cancel my travel plans for that weekend. My idea of a great day!!
Please do this again. I gotta make it to the next one! What an event!
So much love, and respect, and sh*t talking.. Gotta love it. ✌
that call to the post - was great. you took it to her- she had no answers . pres - looks like a super' ahbeetz' event. - poppin in - from New Haven . slice up !! ~ JDS/CT
That looks like a freakin blast!!!! Hello from Toronto 🇨🇦 Canada!!!!! 😊
I missed this but I can’t wait for this years.
Looks great man.... helped a lot of people
You can tell he is the real deal. He remembered every pizza franchise and people involved with every store. God bless. Dave. You should get into politics. I would vote for you for president. Not kidding. 👍
They all love Dave like family
this looks like fucking heaven
I'm buying a shirt once I can get off my mom's couch. Lol
Please do this again. Couldn't make it this time, but would love to make the trip from WV.
You are the man Dave! Stay classy
Santillo’s!!!! 😂 What a legend
I'm so pissed I missed it! If he does this again next year - I'm going no matter what! All positive vibes there - can't ask for more!
I am IN for the next one!
This is awesome, seeing all the small family businesses that have benefitted from Dave's reviews and their hard work. I gotta go to the next pizzafest.
FUCK DRAGON PIZZA everyone knows the rules.
One Bite Pizza Fest just went #1 on my bucket list……
AWESOME EVENT BY A AWESOME GUY!!!! CANT WAIT FOR NEXT YEAR
Nothing but really good people in this video.
The world needs this Dave. Thank you. 💯🍕🍕❤❤🍺
absolute boss. New England born obviously
the fact that the man with hundreds of millions still recognizes that its a lot to travel from AL to MA means at least a little something
Muahahaaha that washington post girl got her A handed to her.
I really wanted to go but couldn't make it. I hope this happens again sometime while I'm still close.
looks like a vibe even with the rain !
"Is my shirt too tight for you?" hHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
Jesus, I wish I could have made it to this thing. Do it next year and I'll walk my ass the 1,800 miles there if I have to.
Congratulations!!! It looks like a wonderful success story.
Epic Dude--- keep rocking that boat
Finally, been waiting for this!
that end song low key made me emotional. lol
Dave's stock has never been higher!
Man of the people for the people.
Hey editor this video seems to be missing one of everyone’s favorite barstool employees, Rico bosco! Can we get the extended cut with all the best rico moments of the day?
Lets be honest here. The real hero and the guy running the show is clearly Al Santillo.
I thought there was no chance he would came🙃
This man really is the king of views
Can you please take the Pizza Super Bowl on tour? This is the event America needs
This guy is loved by the community. The hit pueces are insane.
