No papa Johns anywhere near Buffalo

I may have missed it in all the posts, so if this has been covered, nevermind- but I think, as a business idea, that you shouldn't just limit it to 5th gen Camaros, and invite ALL Camaro owners, regardless if they're a C5 member or not. I know the idea originated here, but the underlying idea is Camaro participation, similar to the "gatherings" in Atlanta, etc. and showing Papa John's how it may promote their business.

I also saw ideas like "well, PJ's could offer discount coupons, donate X amount to charity", etc.....bad idea to expect a business to just hop on board with it. Because in most larger businesses, they have to have lawyers chew over proposals, as well as expecting any discounts would be silly. If the event is to cruise into PJ's, then just buy a pie without worrying about coupons. This wasn't an idea originated by PJ's. But obviously, any support they could give by simply allowing Camaros to show up (without hogging up their entire customer parking spaces- other customers could care less about Camaros) and hang out for a while would be great.

I'm not against this idea at all, but some people need to be a little more realistic about what to expect from corporations. But since the CEO has a Camaro, you never know til you ask.

All Camaro owners are invited- no, ENCOURAGED to some out.

Papa Johns Corporate Office | Headquarters
10338 South Padre Island Drive Corpus Christi, TX 78418 (361)937-1340. Everyone in favor of this idea please contact HQ , the more people who bring this up the better chance we have!

04Ram2500Hemi · 06-05-2010, 10:00 PM

This sounds like a great idea to me. Heck, work is right across the street from Pappa John's.

Phantom.5SS · 06-13-2010, 12:57 PM

Any movement on this idea? Thread seems to have stopped dead?

This thread stopped dead because I've been so busy with everything. I'll get the ball rolling.

BeckyD@RodgersChevrolet · 06-13-2010, 09:03 PM

I think this would a lot of fun! Imagine the pictures!

firefighterEMT33 · 06-13-2010, 09:05 PM

I'm down with the 26th of August. Who should I contact in my neighborhood? Or should I go straight to writing a letter to corporate?

SScattergunSS · 06-14-2010, 02:23 PM

I just put a call into Papa John's Corporate HQ. As I hear back from them, I'll pass whatever information I learn here in this thread.

I would also encourage everyone who has not posted in this thread yet to do so expressing either their support for this, or play devil's advocate and speak as to why it's a bad idea.

So far there hasn't been any negative posts, but I do welcome hearing those too...so don't be bashful, speak your mind!

I think this could be alot of fun for all of us Camaro enthusiasts throughout the land to unite on one day in the comfort of our own towns. Since it won't require much if any travel, it will make it easy for everyone of us to participate. It does promise to be a good time for all.

Once again, please do post in this thread and express your thoughts, either Yea or Nay.

Thanks, Ed ~ SScattergunSS

I love the idea. Could not make it to the "free pizza" event last year because I had no brakes on my 3rd gen. I would love to head out and give PJ's some business for being a camaro fan. I think setting up a time 6-8 or something like that would be a better idea. We have a local Fbody club here and it would be a nice informal meet and greet. Keep us posted on the progress.

Tessa · 06-14-2010, 02:30 PM

I think this is an amusing idea

Would love to see a bunch of Camaro's hanging around the local PJ's...

Yes Sir, I do think a two hour time frame might be the best bet as well. Otherwise it would just be too sporadic. I mean, the point of this is to make a "Get Together" out of it!

jennnchuck · 06-14-2010, 02:35 PM

count me in, i think its a great idea. looking forward to seeing some fellow camaro owners there as well.

You know, one thing I will say that hasn't been mentioned, but that I kind of took for granted is that this is for EVERYBODY! Even if you don't currently have a Camaro, you wouldn't be here on C5 if you didn't have a genuine interest in it.

So, this is for everyone, whether you have a Camaro or not...and regardless of which generation F-Body you have. Personally, I'd LOVE getting to see a bunch of old ones show up!!!

Great idea. I know you've been mentioning talking to papa johns about it. Any plans for a commercial or something to get the word out to Camaro owners who have yet to find this site? or just C5 exclusive?

wangtangjf7 · 06-15-2010, 01:30 PM

I have a question. Most cities have more than one Papa John's. Assuming this all works out and it happens, is there gonna be a post for each city of which papa john to go to? If all the people in the city can meet at one location, i think it'll get more attention because the crowds will be bigger. Maybe everyone can meet at the papa john's in/closest to their respective city's downtown area.
