Local Papa John’s Bring TV Spot to Life, Honor Firefighters with Free Pizza

Thus far in the “Papa’s In The House” television campaign, company Founder and CEO, John Schnatter has made surprise pizza deliveries to birthday parties and a field hockey team. This time, we find John at a local Firehouse.

“When we shoot the ‘Papa’s In The House’ commercials, we step into the everyday lives of our customers as they enjoy Papa John’s pizza,” said Andrew Varga, chief marketing officer for Papa John’s International, Inc. “Our video crew follows John on actual deliveries capturing the magic that occurs because of his passion and dedication to our quality product. This time it happened in a Firehouse. It will be interesting to see whose house he’s in next.”
