Reddit Has Named This Campus Pizza Institution As The Best Pizza In Columbus

Over the course of 39 days, the Columbus subreddit has decided on the best pizza in the city.

The internet is full of opinions. But it can also be a great place to gather data. Knowing where to get the best pizza in Columbus is always information that I’m interested in, so over the last month, I’ve been paying close attention to a fun activity happening on Reddit Columbus: The Columbus Pizza Showdown.

For the first week of the competitions, the subreddit voted on 97 local pizza spots. Each day, the top four winners were added to the pizza bracket. Reddit user u/AznTakingOver organized the whole bracket, a huge undertaking, and even seeded the chosen competitors based on the percentage of votes they received each day.

Along the way, there were a variety of upsets, but eventually, one local pizza spot came out on top. The final battle came down to Hounddogs and Adriaticos, and the old dog managed to pull out a win.

Hounddogs earned over 62% of the vote in the final round, cementing their position as top dog.

“I found this entertaining and I appreciate all of the feedback. I have personally added a ton of places to try,” said u/AznTakingOver on the final Pizza Showdown post. “I enjoy all of the food posts here on the sub. I think it showcases the city’s charm and this was my attempt to contribute.”

Discussions around the best pizza in Columbus tend to get fairly heated, but this process actually managed to bring some levity.

Congratulations to Hounddogs and thanks to the amazing Redditor who started The Columbus Pizza Showdown. Now, who’s ordering pizza for dinner?
