00:10 >> Shanghai Sharks.
00:20 >> Yeah.
00:20 >> Donnie.
00:21 >> All right, pizzeria time, Pizzanos.
00:24 So we have our basketball tournament right across the street,
00:27 Winchester Arena, Barstool Invitational.
00:29 We got the first game getting ready to tip off, really just minutes away.
00:32 FAU and the Loyola, so it's a gene.
00:37 Pizzanos across the street, I'm like, what is this place?
00:39 I don't know, Austin, how we haven't done it.
00:42 I actually did their frozen pizza back in the day.
00:44 It was Oprah Winfrey's favorite pizza.
00:47 Who else was ranting and raving about it?
00:50 Jeff Ruby, my guy.
00:52 Jeff Ruby is a food guy.
00:54 I have so much faith in what he says.
00:56 I can't believe I haven't been to Pizzanos.
00:59 It's Chicago royalty.
01:00 This is gonna be the pan style here, but let me try to keep it straight.
01:06 Rudy Malnati opened the first UNO's, first really deep dish,
01:14 introduced deep dish to the world in Chicago.
01:16 Two sons, stay with me.
01:19 Rudy Malnati has two sons.
01:23 He has Lou Malnati and Rudy Jr.
01:26 Rudy Jr. convinces his mother, very attractive lady, not to be a weirdo,
01:32 at least in her day, to go, hey, ma, we got deep dish, we need the pan.
01:37 He opens this, passed away, RIP, still in the family running it.
01:42 And then Lou Malnati, the other son, opens Lou Malnati's,
01:45 which is classic Chicago deep dish.
01:50 UNO's, Lou Malnati's, Pizzanos, I think there's four locations.
01:55 How have I not done this?
01:56 This is Chicago pizza royalty.
01:58 One bite, everyone knows the rules.
02:00 Guy almost passed out when I went in there.
02:02 And there it is, this is the pan style.
02:04 They cooked it as good as they could cook it for me.
02:14 >> 9.5, friends.
02:16 >> 9.5?
02:16 >> All day, all day.
02:17 >> Well, that's crazy.
02:19 All right, thank you.
02:19 We know it ain't a 9.5, but I love it.
02:24 His enthusiasm, that is.
02:27 Good crunch, a very traditional, by the way, the place is awesome in there.
02:32 We're talking about, where's it getting cold, Christmasy.
02:37 We got a Brian Piccolo shirt, Chicago, food falling out of my mouth,
02:41 the bears, they stink, who cares?
02:44 Got that vibe.
02:45 I'm gonna go, by the way, shout out Pizza Hut, I'm wearing some put in.
02:48 This jacket, absolute fire.
02:50 They're sponsoring shout out Pizza Hut, they're sponsoring the basketball tournament
02:53 for college basketball.
02:55 I'm big Pizza Hut guy now, but back to what we need.
