This Is Where Iowa Gets The Best Pizza For College Game Day

College football is back.  That feels nice to say.  So let's say it again.  College football is back.  Ahhhh.

The thing that goes great with College Game Day is the perfect slice of pizza.  These are the best places to get pizza in both of Iowa's college towns.

Iowa State Pizza Place

Before, during, or after a Cyclones game there are a lot of places to choose for some pizza.  But one place has been doing it since May of 1979.  That's 44 years of cheesy goodness.

The Great Plains Sauce and Dough Co. makes their fresh dough daily in thin as a "Sam's, Thin Denver or Idaho" or thick with styles of "Denver, New Orleans or Oat".

They have also been making pizza since 1980 in the shape of a heart.  What started as a Valentine's Day promotion has now turned into something you can order at any time for any special occasion.  Like College Game Day.
