NOT A SLICE WASTED

Most New Yorkers (no matter how calorie conscious) can appreciate the drunken late night slice. After a few beers you can find us making the trek to particular pizza hot spots such as Sal’s on Avenue A, Lombardi’s on Spring street or Joe's in the West Village.

After a night out with Brooklyn friends we decided to catch the last call of slices over at Joe’s Pizza on Seventh Avenue in Park Slope. The slices were great, the crowd friendly but perhaps the best part was this unusual scene taking place down the street.

An older woman was leaning out her window lowering a blue bag on a string down to the pizza delivery guy. The guy was filling up the bag with extra slices and garlic knots.

KDunk: Hey, what’s going on here might I ask?

Pizza Guy: That’s Rosie. She sends a bag down every night at closing and we give her the leftovers.

KDunk: That’s great! Do you mind if I take a picture?

Pizza Guy: Sure! Why not? Hey, not a slice wasted!
