Papa John's Pizza and Baseball

First, I'd like to say their pizza sucks. But what's with their promotion that if the Yankees score 6 runs or more that their terrible pizza is 50% off the next day? Baltimore is 7 runs or more Isn't that discrimination?
What have other DUers in other cities observed about PJ's advertising about their inferior pizza?

THe Yankees (whether you love, hate, or are indifferent to them) play in a city that is known for pizza. What genius thought to put terrible pizza like PJs in a city like New York (or the surrounding area). They can do so much better by supporting a local pizzeria (and the pizza is much better).

As far as I know. They have the same deal with the Phillies and Flyers. I've seen it with other teams as well.

The guy's always on my freakin TV but he can't pay for that evil health care!
