Pizza wars is next week, January 16th. You just might wanna be there, I will!

You all must remember last year I posted pics from an event known as Pizza Wars! Pizza Wars is a charitable event pitting some of Chicagoland's greatest pizza spots against each other for a shot at Pizza War glory! 

Here is all of the information you need for Pizza Wars....

SKOKIE, IL (JANUARY 16, 2014) – The District 219 Education Foundation, with the assistance of the student organization Dance Marathon, will host its 4^th annual Pizza Wars on Thursday, January 16^th, 2014, from 6-8pm as pizza ovens across Niles township will be fired up in preparation for the Foundation’s signature fundraiser, “Pizza Wars 4: May The Fourth Be With You”. After last years’ standing room only success, the event has been moved to the larger contest gym at Niles West High School (5701 Oakton, Skokie). The question plaguing all…will Village Inn retain its title of Maestro or will the trophy be tossed to another?

Pizza tasting will begin at 6pm, with the contest ending at 7:15pm. The trophy will be awarded at 7:30pm. Advanced ticket prices are $12 per person, $40 for a family of 4, and $15 per person at the door. The evening will also feature live entertainment from Niles West and North student bands, face painting, a balloon artist and a strolling magician for the young at heart. Tickets may be purchased on the Foundation’s website at www.219foundation.org. Participating pizzerias include Lou Malnati’s, Barnaby’s, Father & Son Italian Kitchen, Giordano’s, Gulliver’s, Jet’s Pizza, Nancy’s, OrganicLife, Papa John’s, Village Inn, and Wa-pa-ghetti’s.

I am looking forward to it! Also, it will be my 1 yr anniversary of meeting the wonderfully talented and exceptionally beautiful women of Ripple Productions, who play a big part in organizing and promoting Pizza Wars!
