Papa John's offers free pizza to Dr. Jones
October 13, 2008
LOUISVILLE, Ky. -- Papa John's, in conjunction with the DVD and Blu-ray release of "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull," on Oct. 14, will pay tribute to the famed archaeologist by offering a free XL Explorer Pizza to everyone in America who shares the title of "Dr. Jones."
Of the more than 1.3 million people with the last name Jones nationwide, an estimated 1,600 have advanced doctoral degrees - including physicians, dentists, veterinarians and professors.
As an added bonus, those "Dr. Jones" living in the state of Indiana will not only receive a free pizza, but will also receive a copy of the "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" DVD, courtesy of Papa John's, Paramount Home Entertainment and Lucasfilm Ltd.
To celebrate this offer to Dr. Joneses, Papa John's founder, John Schnatter, an Indiana-native who made his first Papa John's pizza in Jeffersonville, Ind., will hand deliver the free pizza and DVD to Dr. James "Rick" Jones - who also happens to be the official archaeologist of the state of Indiana.
Dr. Joneses wishing to explore the possibilities of the Papa John's XL Explorer Pizza should watch their mailboxes for a special online code to collect the free pie at their nearest Papa John's restaurant. They will be asked to show the mailer along with a photo ID. The free pizza offer ends Oct. 26.
The XL Explorer Pizza is 30 percent larger than Papa John's large pizza, served with up to three toppings for $13.99. The pizza arrives in a limited-edition box featuring a scene from the movie.
