Grand Casino Hinckley's Famous Chicago-style Thin Crust Pizza...

So, as I mentioned, we were at Devo and Kati's wedding this weekend. Since it was out of town, we stayed at the Grand Casino Hotel in Hinckley, MN.

When we got to the room, I found the following flyer on the nightstand:


Now, I'm not even going to focus on the part that says "famous" as I'm sure the adwizard who came up with that line has already been beaten to death with a candy cane.

No...my focus is on what follows famous: CHICAGO-STYLE THIN CRUST PIZZA

Now, as we all know, Chicago is known for it's deep dish pizza. Even that moron Wikipedia knows that:

True Chicago-style pizza, a unique deep dish variety, features a buttery crust, cheese and chunky tomato sauce.

So, what are they trying to do here? Are their heads that deep in the sand that they think they can pull the wool over our eyes and convince us that their cracker-crust-crapfest is actually Chicago-style and no one would question a casino?

Or do they just think it sounds good? Like throwing a whole bunch of things together and hopeing someone goes:

Hey, I like Chicago style pizza! I should order!

and someone else goes:

Hey, I like thin crust pizza! I should order!

Some other menu items that, if they had them, I would also not order:

- New England-style Manhattan Clam Chowder

- White Castle-style Wendy's Hamburger

- Greek-style Enchiladas

- Wet-style Wheat Thins

- Massachusetts-style Marriage License (not that there's anything wrong with that)

You suck Grand Casino Hinckley.
