Pizza

I have finally tried the big three pizza places in downtown state college: Canyon Pizza, Highway Pizza, and Snap Pizza. Please let me know in the comments if there are any other good pizza places that I am missing. Since I now have a personal experience at each of these pizza places, it is time…
