TULSA, Okla. — Andolini's Pizzeria, a staple of Tulsa area pizza, recruited help from basketball fans and pizza lovers to set a Guinness World Record at TU's basketball game on Saturday.
The University of Tulsa hosted the party at the Reynolds Center as part of the pregame for TU's men's basketball game against Tulane where they asked people to come in and simultaneously eat their pizza together within an allotted 15 minute-timeframe. They had to eat at minimum 1/4 of a 10-inch pizza and drink a small water to be counted.
The new record now sits at 3,357 people simultaneously eating pizza. The event raised $42,090 for Make-A-Wish Oklahoma, granting eight waiting children’s wishes.
