"I guess nothing is ever as good as you remember it"
-Marge Simpson
Unfortunately, I tend to forget why Gino's pizza is the most awful pizza place in Arizona.
About every four years I forget that they use the world's worst watered down sauce, synthetic tasting, plastic-like cheeses and toppings, and a crust that seems to only consist of equal portions of flour and water. That leads to forcing myself into a journey that reminds me that this place is a poor excuse for a pizza parlor.
It's clear this place has a steady stream of customers, (the owner flaunts an ever changing sports car out front of the restaurant). How else could he afford to drive nice vehicles? That leads me to believe that there are like-minded saps who make a residual journey every few years to find out why it's been so long since there last visit.
On a positive nod to nostalgia, they still have the same arcade games I fed quarters to as a child. That tends to bring a lighter side to each visit.
It is very clear that this is the worst pizza (find out for yourself!), but at least you can always rely on the on that consistency.
