Order a pizza with your exam
« on: March 27, 2009, 03:25:48 pm »
A cash-strapped American high school has agreed a deal to put pizza adverts on its exam papers and worksheets.
 Students studying at Pocatello High School in Idaho will be targeted by a promotion for a local pizza shop's 14" one-topping special.

The Molto Caldo Pizzeria advert appears on all test papers, handouts and worksheets.

The promotion reads MOLTO'S PIZZA 14" 1 TOPPING JUST $5 in bright red, 2.5cm-high letters printed along the bottom of every page.

History and economics teacher Jeb Harrison dreamed up the scheme.

He believes the school will benefit from more than just a slice of the profits from the deal.

I couldn't concentrate on the exam for thinking about the pizza.

I've never been able to manage a 9" meat feast, never mind a 12".   ;)
