This London Marathon spectator offered runners pizza from the palm of his hand

James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.

One thoughtful London Marathon spectator decided to try to help some tired runners out by offering what he had on hand — a slice of Domino’s pepperoni pizza.

At first the runners ignored him outright, or gave him looks of pure incredulity.

But finally one hungry runner succumbed to his base desires for tepid cheese and meat in an effort to keep himself going.

It might not be the best way to eat pizza, in fact it’s probably the worst — but this is perhaps the best example of the theory that there is no such thing as bad pizza. After all, lukewarm Domino’s pizza during a run being offered by a stranger is essentially as dangerous as pizza can possibly get — and yet there was still a taker.

Only way this could be worse is if someone offered a slice of frozen pizza cooked on the radiator of an old car. Hmm ... still would eat.
