We’ve all done it. Whether it’s that grueling two mile walk from Devon to South Main, or you somehow made it back to your dorm from Copper, the drunk walk home is hell on earth. But when you’re about to collapse on the floor after your strenuous trek through the Burg, pick up the phone and call Chanello’s. A large pizza will make it better, promise. 

7. When You Fail an Exam

Look, you might’ve failed that econ exam, but a Chanello’s Big Boy won’t fail you. It’s an A+ in my book. 

8. When You Need a Cheat Day
