The fucking reason why Dominos retired him was because some guy named Kenneth Lamar Noid thought their commercials with the mascot were directly insulting him? So in return he held some people hostage at a Dominos and they made him pizza?

The article about the demise of the Noid

Said commercials:


My mind is blown.

Anyways, do you guys still eat at Dominos or nah? I think their pineapple pizza is pretty dope.

Yeah, it's pretty sad and bizarre.

I think I ate at Dominos once and it sucked. But I don't really like pizza most of the time.

And then later committed suicide because of it.

That's when Dominos stopped using the Noid as a mascot.

Pretty lame, Noid is one of the greatest mascots of all time, much better than their shitty pizza.

Nah. I mean, I do. But I don't go out of my way to buy it (or buy it at all). Only if someone else orders. And I begrudgingly say yes because everyone else nay'd The Hut.

Pizza Hut all day, every day.

I just like more cheese less sauce rather than vice versa. Plus, you can't beat stuffed crust even to this day. Or the P'Zone.


But I would still eat their pineapple pizza anyday. 🍍 🍕

As long as we're talking about the Noid, I wanna bring up the unauthorized sequel to Yo Noid.

Wow, wait...what the fuck? I was a kid in the 80s and I remember the Noid of course, but I had no idea about the hostage situation or the fact that this man took his own life because of his fixation on the Noid. Damn...

Not sure how good their pizza is, but their pasta bread bowls were/are pretty good.

The true crime angle of the Noid is one of the most bizarre bits of trivia there is. Like, if it wasn't true, no one would believe it.

Dominoes was ass for a while and then sometime in the 2010s they changed up ingredients and how the pizzas were made, much better after that.

Stoned and hungry at home? Don't want to drive to the pizza joint and feel paraNOID? Call Domino's for delivery and avoid the NOID.

Exactly. I never seek out Dominos, but it's perfectly acceptable since the ingredient revamp. And the prices are absurdly low.

I really dislike Dominos. Their sauce and regular crust is gross. That said, I really, really like ordering a BBQ Chicken Bacon Pan pizza with extra cheese.

Dominoes is foul. I've said this before, but I got a couple for free when they were available on the T-Mobile Tuesday app. My kids asked me to never get one again because the pizza tasted like sweaty socks they said.
