- WordsnCollision, on 08/25/2009, -14/+441Ironically, the maker of the Camaro did NOT stay afloat.
- gankige, on 08/25/2009, -7/+246Dugg for the lifetime supply of pizza and $250K.
- janjamm, on 08/25/2009, -4/+211There's no explaining men and their cars. I do like the selfless gesture he made for his Dad. The guy deserves his happiness.
- ManicMinority, on 08/26/2009, -2/+185Can the person with my beloved '87 Toyota Corolla please contact me ASAP?
I have a $2.50 reward for the car. - jdelator, on 08/26/2009, -5/+136My first car is a camaro and I still have it. I'm going to go get my free pizza tomorrow.
- Shawon, on 08/26/2009, -1/+114Wow I wish I was as lucky as that previous owner. Imagine buying an old car for $4,000 and then be given $250,000 for it.
- Jaydo, on 08/26/2009, -3/+114I actually met the founder at a opening of a YMCA nearby several years back, when they weren't as big and were making their way into Washington state. He was a really nice guy, stayed around and talked to all the kids and parents for several hours.
That experience plus my fat ass has always kept me fond of Papa John's pizza. They might not be the cheapest, but they have a unique taste to them that I don't get anywhere else, and their soft crust is the *****. - bkraj, on 08/26/2009, -1/+106And now it appears he lives in a castle.
- trapper2530, on 08/26/2009, -19/+117im pretty sure Papa John can eat his own pizza whenever he wants
- MargotCross, on 08/25/2009, -3/+99thats sweet.. in a very bro-ish kind of way.
- yeeaauuh, on 08/25/2009, -4/+99Definitely not a cash for clunkers candidate.
- agless, on 08/26/2009, -2/+94Today I sold my '93 Subaru wagon for $600 to keep my electric on.
I doubt there will be a reunion. - mazurkfsflip8, on 08/26/2009, -2/+69where does it say anything about lifetime supply of pizza?
- heiroglyph, on 08/26/2009, -1/+63"Robinson, who bought the car about five years ago for $4,000..."
WTF? Where can I find a '71 Camaro for $4k? - onlynameicanget, on 08/26/2009, -0/+48And pizza!
- brownsound00, on 08/26/2009, -1/+48:(
- Vindexus, on 08/26/2009, -0/+47That email address has a lot of spaces.
- YokohamaGaijin, on 08/26/2009, -6/+52This is the best story I'll probably read all day.
- inactive, on 08/26/2009, -0/+38Dugg for personal story.
- BobSagetFan, on 08/26/2009, -3/+39HIS NAME ISN'T ACTUALLY PAPA JOHN?
- archivedigger, on 08/25/2009, -2/+37No way my first car is worth $250K. More like $2.50.
- Shiftgood, on 08/25/2009, -14/+47Ive owned a lot of cars in my life... the only ones i miss are American made... especially my Camaro.
- jerryjamesstone, on 08/25/2009, -4/+35perty
- Lane, on 08/26/2009, -18/+49You won't see a story like this over a mustang, that's for sure.
/camaro owner - inactive, on 08/26/2009, -18/+47BITCHIN' CAMARO! BITCHIN' CAMARO!
I ran over my neighbors!
BITCHIN' CAMARO! BITCHIN' CAMARO!
Now I get all their papers! - bdigital24, on 08/26/2009, -0/+29"Schnatter says it looks very much the same as it did when he sold it in 1983, but with a larger motor and fatter tires for drag racing, (omitted: as well as a flux capacitor for convenient time travel)."
- GliTCH82, on 08/26/2009, -0/+27My first car was an early nineties Saturn. I'd pay $2.50 if I could find it just to kick the ***** out of its dent-resistant doors again.
- vpshockwave, on 08/26/2009, -1/+28and I'm pretty sure mazurkfsflip8 was referring to the person who present the car to John.
Not John himself. - joelcass, on 08/26/2009, -9/+33If I worked @ Papa John's for minimum age - this wouldn't seem so impressive.
- ygeoff419, on 08/26/2009, -0/+24You succeeded in missing the point, congratulations!
- WhoDoneIt, on 08/26/2009, -1/+24No worries, you probably wouldn't get your ego through the doorway anyway.
- morcheeba, on 08/26/2009, -0/+23My folks bought me a bitchin' Camaro
With no insurance to match
So if I happen to run you down
Please don't leave a scratch
(p.s. it's "Now you're *IN* all the papers") - AmyVernon, on 08/25/2009, -1/+23lucky.
- Drkgodess, on 08/26/2009, -1/+23/grammar nazi
- rusty0101, on 08/26/2009, -1/+21Apparently in some parts of Kentucky. Of course in some places a '71 Camaro for $4K is a bit over priced.
- PeppermintPig, on 08/26/2009, -3/+22What a great story. He sold the car, which helped both his father and himself! Now he's very prosperous and helped create value for those who helped him track it down. Plus Camaro owners get free pizza?? Capitalism is awesome!
- mablung, on 08/26/2009, -1/+18Suckered how?
- WhoDoneIt, on 08/26/2009, -1/+18Really? Does this mean you taste it often?
- 11oops, on 08/26/2009, -0/+17No, it wouldn't be eligible since it's a '71. Sure does say something about your level of knowledge and ability to research.
- DaviDTC, on 08/26/2009, -3/+19At the end of the article it mention Camaro owners can get a free 1 topping pizza on Wednesday
http://forums.slickdeals.net/showthread.php?sduid= ... - Hallucinogenic, on 08/26/2009, -0/+16We do. We have to take pictures of them all, too.
Tomorrow is going to suck. - Tolzmaniac, on 08/26/2009, -0/+15Let's see if the employees at Papa John's know the difference between a Camaro and my Firebird
- KilGil27, on 08/26/2009, -3/+18"In this August 24, 2009 handout photo released by Papa John's Pizza, John Schnatter, the founder of Papa John's pizza, is seen Tuesday, Aug. 25, 2009 outside his home in Louisville, Ky., with his beloved 1971 Z28 Camaro, which he sold in 1983 to keep his father's tavern afloat and ultimately launch Papa John's Pizza."
huh? - slashdotordigg, on 08/26/2009, -0/+14It's in your garage. Can i have the check mailed to me?
- wdw25, on 08/26/2009, -0/+14... a $250,000 Camaro.
- Spade83, on 08/26/2009, -3/+17/douche
- inactive, on 08/26/2009, -3/+17Attention: testicles.
That is all. - circadiem, on 08/26/2009, -1/+14that's just what his bitches refer to him as.
"I'm Papa ***** John"
"Is Papa John gonna hafta slappa ho?" - Dustmuffins, on 08/26/2009, -1/+14An INTERESTING personal story.
- shoyurx, on 08/26/2009, -0/+12My local radio station that covered the story said the seller got a lifetime supply.
