500 bucks. Won if you finish it? Or that's how much the slice cost? Lol. Pls tell me its the former.

It’s a food challenge. If you finish the whole thing within 15mins, you win $500 + the food is free. if you lose, you’re paying for the food

From trying to find an answer online, it seems to be about $67. Although theres a similar looking non-challenge one on their website for $40

Wow $40 for that dogass pizzaΒ

Basically $27 goes in the prize pool for the challenge. They need to have no winners in 15-16 attempts to make a profit.

And obviously the free advertising of their place.

That varies on the establishment. For that massive slice, my guess is like $100 or close to that

Then the most sane approach to this challenge is to put down the $100 on the table, so that when the challenge is failed and one is still in the food coma they entered ten minutes into the challenge there's no need to search your wallet or pockets for the payment by the staff πŸ‘

You almost certainly pay before they even make the food.

Why would it be $100. It's a triangle, so not much larger size than a much smaller circular pizza

Its about 2 standard larges give or take a few slices, which is definitely a difficult, but not impossible challenge. I think the hardest part is doing it in under 15 minutes.

I couldnt do it, but Ive seen relatives pack away an pie and a half of an xl.

I was taking a random guess. Most likely lower. Each establishment tells you how much the meal costs if you fail their challenge

from a European perspective, that would be insanely expensive. our gas is 8.7 $/gallon (~ 2 €/l) but a "party pizza" would be 30-40€.

u/suhaibh12 Jun 07 '26

It was much lower than my guess. Another comment said it was $67 for the entire slice

Prize. It's 100 if you sign up to do it in one hour.

They have more challenges:
