PHOTO: Dearborn Teen Gets Creative with Prom Pizza

A Paisano's Pizza customer gave his would-be prom date more than a slice of pizza.

A student decided to take a not-so-traditional route to asking a girl to be his prom date recently at in Dearborn.

According to Paisano's, "He had his 'prom prospect' meet him in our lobby and ... he had flowers."

But how'd he ask?

A pizza with black olives spelling out his big question for her: "Prom?"

Unfortunately, he didn't end up with a prom date. UPDATE: She said yes! Read the girl's comment below. Her inital "no," she says, was just a joke. Phew!

Paisano's employees said it was a memorable experience. "With our 41 years in business, that was our first prom pizza request ever," they said. "Us guys tip our hats off to him."

Sorry it didn't work out. This trend started in our area, I think, when "Laguna Beach" started airing on MTV; is it hard to actually ask someone with your voice? I think it's a west coast thing. Very sweet (savory?) of him :)

I'm sorry to but he can never say he didn't try. He did a great job but it just didn't turn out the right way for him.

Does anyone else have a good prom story? I can't even remember how I got asked to prom. I hope this guy knows how gutsy and awesome this was, regardless of her answer!

This is too funnyy!! I'm the girl that got asked. We have pizza and wings there every Thursday with our friends, so it was unexpected that he would ask while we where there. I said no jokingly, but we are going to prom together and we will most definitely take a picture prom day at Paisanos.

Thanks for sharing, Fatima! I think a lot of Dearborn Patch readers are happy to hear that you said yes - we love the prom pizza, and I would love it if you upload your prom photo to the site, too! Have fun at prom!

Very bold... implying that she wants to eat an entire Double-XXL pizza herself.
I'm surprised he didn't get punched below the belt.

Hasn't even worked one day? Not one day in 15 years? Really? Not even credit for one day? When I…Read More worked at the Press & Guide (which eliminated my position in a budget restructuring that has continued under various corporate owners at the P&G for a decade and a half, resulting in them moving their offices to Southgate and more recently just out-and-out eliminating their editor, sports editor and photographer) we had a policy of no anonymous letters to the editor. This was done because, while everyone has the right to express their opinion, putting a real name with an opinion meant people displayed more decorum and, well, less cowardice than is allowed in online comments from the shadows. Joseph, the benefit of post-employment health care after just eight years of service may have, in the early 1990s, been more acceptable in some way I can't figure (retention of key department heads has been cited as a reason, as was that it apparently mirrored a benefit for state officials), but it clearly was part of the excesses of Wayne County that was unjustifiable and unsustainable in the 2000s. This practice was ended two years ago by a resolution I introduced.
