Bobby Jedrzejczak, or “Bobby J. the Pizza Man,” as he’s known, stood beaming behind the counter of Domino’s Pizza in Punta Gorda last week as he contemplated today’s Super Bowl Sunday business rush.
“It’s my busiest day of the year — two to three times normal” for a Sunday,” he said. “I’d advise customers to order before 4 or after 7, or they could face a long wait during the game.”
