He was delivering to the neighbor and, while he waited for them to answer the doorbell, he asked me if I heard of this nifty little thing called Bitcoin. I couldn't resist telling him the Bitcoin pizza story and told him that I'd also used it to order pizza delivery before. But it's good to see that Bitcoin is starting to get out there more.

Well that's interesting. When I get pizza delivered I'm usually trying to shove my cats back thru the door and don't have time for conversation whilst paying the (wo)man. It's always a giant clusterfuck.

There's a restaurant in my city that sells pizza and accept Bitcoin. You can buy marijuana next door too and pay with Bitcoin.

Signatures? How about learning a skill... I don't care either way. Everybody has to make a living somehow.

Its good to see that bitcoin is becoming more out there.
I have a similar story. Once I took a Cab and the trip was bit long so the cab driver started to talk with me about the current economic state of my country, and after a while he goes on and asks me if I've ever heard about bitcoin. I was absolutely amazed!

Even the pizza guy knows Bitcoin, this is getting more mainstream. I'm glad that you told the pizza guy about that story, because he will also tell the story to his friends and everybody on that pizza store will know that story.  |

This is only the beginning of mainstream. I guess at this stage they are just taking it as something funny. Soon they will regard for not taking it seriously. |

I met only one person until now who asked me if I know about Bitcoin and I was amazed at first but then to test his knowledge, I pretended as if I have no idea what it is, so he tried to explain it to me and it looked more like a sales pitch for a get rich plan and then I told him I am in Bitcoin world from 2 years now and corrected him that he shouldn't present Bitcoin as a get rich scheme.

You must be living in a town called "Heaven" lol It's a major Canadian city named "Vancouver". Went on vacation to Vancouver last summer, weed store on basically every corner. It's pretty nuts, in a good or bad way depending on how you intend on looking at it. I wonder what varieties of kush they have hidden away... |

Pizza delivery is a decent and honest job... I guess pizza guys are most likely too busy to surf the internet... |

it is good to see others try for adding more real life usage for bitcoin in our day to day lives. although i didn't get what laugh part was though! reading the topic i though it is a story of telling the pizza guy to accept bitcoin and him laughing and saying what is bitcoin  but it looks like it was the other way around |

It would not be unnatural for someone in the pizza delivery business to know about Bitcoin or to have know about it. The pizza story made headlines in most news papers for a while and even helped to spread awareness of how valuable Bitcoin has become and that you could buy goods and pay for services for it.
I have bought pizza with Bitcoin before, and it is fun to talk to these guys and gals.
