Manning says pot good for business

USA TODAY - Life is good for Peyton Manning. The Denver Broncos are 2-0 and the pizza business in Colorado is bustling.

The quarterback, who owns more than 20 Papa John's Pizza franchises, explained why he believes more people have been ordering pizza recently during an interview with Peter King.

"There's some different laws out here in Colorado," Manning said. "Pizza business is pretty good out here, believe it or not, due to some recent law changes. So when you come to a different place, you've kind of got to learn everything that comes with it."

Manning was referring to the fact that Colorado recently legalized recreational marijuana.

Shit, he reminds me of my ex, who got knocked up and it took her a couple of years to figure out who the father was.

When I tried Papa John's, the crust tasted sooooo gummy. Even as an avid pizza lover, I can't tango with Papa John's.
