Hey man. Thanks. I'm prolly the only decent honest person here.
What makes them better is that while yes they are a Pappa Johns, they can use different ingredients in their test kitchen. You ever had deep fried kalamata olives on a white wine sauced 12 inch thin crust?
No I haven't Willy but it sounds great! Fried kalamata olives, white wine sauce, what's not to like!
I'm calling ********. If OP was eating the pie of the gods, he wouldn't be on the paddock.
Gordon Ramsay went to Papa John's in Gatlinburg and they yelled at him for serving substandard food.

Look, 82. It's quite simple. The Gatlinburg PJs is just simply the best.
If you can't take the word of some of us, your blue brethren, that have actually gotten off of our asses and made the trek down there, I don't know what to tell you.
I can't remember who first discovered this gem but he passed along the info on this board and now we're all better off for it.

You simpletons are forgetting the most important part about why the Papa John's in Gatlinburg is so special. Sure the pizza is infinitely better at that particular establishment than it is at your average PJ chain…but what truly makes it a magical experience is the atmosphere.
For starters, the building's neo-gothic design was commissioned by some fancy, schmancy architect in NYC. Also, they re-furnish the interior with the latest, greatest top-dollar furnishings each and every year. I mean it truly is a new experience each and every time you dine at this fine establishment. And they don't have average-joe stools and counter tops in Gatlinburg's Papa Johns or the normal cheap *** table and chairs that you find at the other chains. I'm talking about Pyrolave counter tops made from materials extracted from a volcanic crater in central France, plush couches, Italian marble floors, and leather recliners with seat warmers. And they even have a freakin' Swedish masseuse on staff to cater to you while you wait for your order! Sorry bubb, no happy endings.
Bur here is the best part…what truly makes it a magical experience, it is completely staffed by smoking hot chicks. I mean these aren't toothless local chicks. Papa John ships these hot chicks in from NY City, LA and all over the country just to work at this particular PJ's. Apparently, the hush, hush word about town is that they all double as high dollar escorts in the midnight hour for the celebrities that frequently vacay in Gatlinburg…although I don't know this as fact from personal experience (as far as you know anyway).
Man, you just have to experience it to believe it. Dining at the Papa Johns in Gatlinburg is a truly an amazing life experience.

I only asked why it's better my big blue brother. No more no less. I failed to get a reason for the most part. Blame it on my curiosity. But I will say one thing, I'll definitely check it out next time I'm there. Go Blue! Thanks to all for the recommendation!
Good for you. Some people on here (I won't name names) constantly question the greatness of it but haven't even been there.
I'm not really a foodie so it's hard to relate exactly why it's so good. Yes, the atmosphere but the taste is just.... DAMN!!
Definitely a must do next time you're there.
I'll do it
My wife is driving me nuts for another trip to Gatlinburg. PJ will be our first stop. I remember back in the 70's as a UK student Joe Bologna's was the UK pizza stop (Brookings for chili), now from what I'm reading it's Papa Johns in Gatlinburg.
I hope you have it in a safety deposit box. Will be worth some serious coin someday.
Yeah well, there's the rub.
The Gatlinburg Papa Johns is NOT UK friendly. Not even remotely. Even if you managed to sneak in there with UK gear on they probably won't even serve you. They do have wall to wall big screen TVs in there…but the only time you will see a UK game on in that joint is when they are playing UT…in football. They won't even show a UK vs UT basketball game…unless it is a replay of a game where UT won. And they endlessly loop those mother effin' games if they even suspect that a UK fan has infiltrated their domain.
The only "UK connection" here is that our knowledge of this national treasure only came to light because some time ago an awesome Cat Paws poster was kind enough to share his very own personal Gatlinburg Papa Johns experience right here in the Paddock.
Seriously, man. Don't go prancing in there wearing a UK hat or your BBN cardigan sweater. Even if you managed to make it past the guards at the security gate…i guarandamntee you that the bouncers will thrash you within an inch of your life. And that aint no joke. (Most of them are former UT Football players)
You tell 'em Kaiz. It would be like Lord Gaben himself bestowing his dick on our lips and us plebs complaining that it isn't washed.

That saltine cracker Papa John's calls thin crust is the most godawful thing in all of fast food.
At a typical Papa John's, perhaps; however, the Gatlinburg location differs considerably in this respect.
Heading to Hilton Head next week. My wife wants to swing by this PJ and getting a couple pizzas to take to the beach. Yes, this location makes a special pie that last longer than the others. This is only one difference w/ this location.
Gatlinburg for years has been trying to get this location into town. The native Pigeon Forges laugh at this concept.

Look,does it make you feel 'bigger' and 'tougher' by talking down to people? No wonder there are people who don't want to come to this forum! It is anything but fun or welcoming.The guy only asked you a question and you were just plain rude. Have at it! You aren't worth the effort.
And yet it was worth the effort to make this post? Nothing better than "I'm not gonna waste my time to respond, yet I'll waste my time typing out 'I'm not gonna waste my time'" guy.
People who really don't care don't take the time to post they don't care. Ergo, you care.
This is, far and away, the least funny running "joke' on The Paddock.
