At the tail end of ESPN.com's current headline article there is a nice mention of UC and the Holy Grail of pizza sauce:
"When hungry in Cincinnati, The Dash recommends a slice of LaRosa's Pizza (40). The local favorite can be found about everywhere, and Cincinnatians will rhapsodize about the sauce. You won't find a leafy idyllic look on campus at the University of Cincinnati, but The Dash is impressed by the modernization efforts around the school's very cool, middle-of-campus football facility, Nippert Stadium."
Granted, I am a little biased, but having played in quite a few stadiums across country, Nippert truly is a one-of-a-kind experience. No other stadium that I have been to is dropped smack-dab in the middle of campus (literally 50 feet away from the student union, the College of Engineering, and other Univerisity buildings) like The Nipp.
As for LaRosa's Pizza comment, I totally agree. We now buy the sauce in six pound bags every time we go down to Cincy to use on our homemade pizzas. No store-bought sauce compares and we are too lazy to try making our own. But, really, could we come up with a sauce better than LaRosa's? I can't imagine it possible.
Speaking of pizza, can anyone name the pizza chain that this post's title came from?
