Boston Pizza changing their name for finals

By the time the puck drops Wednesday, Boston Pizza will no longer exist.

In a show of hometown support, the Canadian restaurant chain has changed 62 B.C. locations to "Vancouver Pizza" - at least for the Stanley Cup Finals.

"It's a great idea ... if they kept the name 'Boston' I bet a lot of us Vancouver fans wouldn't have been able to stomach going there and supporting them," joked Courtenay Mayor Greg Phelps


Its a little extreme but I love it.

Funny that they did that. Don't blame them.

Is Boston Pizza good?

Did the same thing during the Montreal series.

And for the record, Boston Pizza is horrible beyond reason. The only place I've ever seen to screw up nachos. Fricken NACHOS!
