Football season is back, and we all know what that means: pizza season is back, too. There’s nothing that compares to the feeling of watching your favorite sport paired with your favorite foods – pizza and wings, of course. With Thursday Night Football, double games on Monday, and the traditional football Sunday, football season has turned into a week-long event that requires plenty of pizza options (or wings) to turn it into a real party.

No matter how you looked at it, 2017 was a year with good, and not-so-good, moments for pizza. From Twitter pineapple pizza debates to epic pizza memes, a lot was said and done around pizza this past year.

The year 2017 was packed with love and support from all of our fans. We laughed, we cried, we sought shelter, we stayed warm even when winter was coming. But most importantly, we delivered warm and toasty pizzas all over the country for you guys to enjoy.

Let’s take a look back at the best moments from 2017.

It’s time to test your pizza hunting abilities. If you are a true pizza lover like you say you are, then you will have no problem finding the hidden pizzas in these pictures. Not to brag, but little Hungry Howie found most of them in less than 10 seconds. Do you think you can do better?

To be fair, he had some practice sessions. So, before we dig into the actual challenge, let’s see how you do with this practice photo. Okay, the challenge is straightforward: how fast can you spot the pizza in this picture?

There’s nothing better than waking up the next morning to realize you have some leftover pizza in the fridge. Now, unless you are team #coldpizza you probably want to find the best way to reheat your pie. But, we want to go beyond that. Although a perfectly reheated pizza slice is fantastic, we have some leftover pizza recipes that will transform your leftover pizza menu forever.

Apparently, there are some people out there who actually enjoy eating cold pizza. Before you shut them off immediately, it's time to stir into the debate and see what they are saying. Hungry Howie’s® is about to tap into the cold vs. hot pizza debate to find out once and for all which one is better.

When it comes to pizza, we don’t really want to mess it up. Side dish pairings with pizza include the classics, a chef salad or Caesar salad, some Howie Bread® and if we are starving, we will toss some Howie Wings® in there as well.

The world is filled with pizza festivals. If you’re a true pizza lover, you have probably attended some of these epic pizza festivals across the country.
