Pizza is a nearly universally loved food! While there is a tiny minority of people who actually dislike pizza, the fact of the matter is that pizza draws a crowd and can please most people. While there are plenty of ways to throw a birthday party nowadays (actually, more than plenty of ways, thank you, Pinterest) pizza parties are one of the best choices for all age groups. In fact, when the Pope celebrated his 81st birthday in 2017, there was only one way to celebrate: with a pizza party.
The Pope was able to share his 13 ft. long pizza with children who currently reside at the Pediatric clinic in the Vatican. While pizza is certainly at the heart of Italy, it is still significant that someone so public would still choose to celebrate his birthday is such a conventional way. In fact, this year for a special occasion, why not celebrate like Pope Francis himself and enjoy one of these fun pizza party ideas?
