I was wondering about that. Is there like a normal Casey's pizza place somewhere, or is this really just gas station pizza? The only Casey's around me that I know of is a gas station, but they do have pizza.

Only gas station, that logo is the same. On the gas station food tier, Casey's is mid while QT and Wawa are top. Bottom would be love's

It's basically an Iowa-based chain and I can tell you that a lot of Iowans gladly buy their pizza because it can be quite good when it's on point. People can make fun of it all they want but a lot of us in Iowa like Casey's Pizza and their breakfast pizza is the bomb!

Used to work the holiday season at the company warehouse in northern Illinois and on those late nights when I coulda used something hot that I didn't have to microwave and wasn't digestively questionable like Denny's, Casey's was a sight for sore taste buds. Beautiful thing!

u/Unhappy_Race1162 1d ago
I'm not going to lie, it's one of my favorite pizzas if you order a fresh one. They are basically pizza places and gas stations combined. Good dough, but really what they do well is the cheese. I'm not even that big of a pizza person, but damn that thick cheese on a Casey's pizza gets me.
18
u/TheRealEkimsnomlas 1d ago
A gas station is the only context for Casey's pizza afaik. And it's about as good as that sounds.
I can only imagine Casey's like McD's were generous campaign donors, otherwise they would be utterly ghosted, though gas station pizza is definitely in the Trump trailer park trash demo pantheon.

u/redhousebythebog 1d ago
Absolutely correct. From Wiki:
"A scam, or a confidence trick, is an attempt to defraud a person or group after first gaining their trust. Confidence tricks exploit victims using a combination of the victim's credulity, naivety, compassion, vanity, confidence, irresponsibility, and greed.
Other terms for "scam" include confidence trick, con, con game, confidence game, confidence scheme, ripoff, stratagem, finesse, grift, hustle, bunko, bunco, swindle, flimflam, gaffle, and bamboozle.
The perpetrator is often referred to as a scammer, confidence man, con man, con artist, grifter, hustler, or swindler. The intended victims are known as marks, suckers, stooges, mugs, rubes, or gulls (from the word gullible). When accomplices are employed, they are known as shills."
