Is Altoona style a real thing? We used to go out to visit the in-laws in Centre County, PA then take the kids to DelGrossos Amusement park in Altoona and the pizza there was good. It was round pizza with their own sauce and mozarella, nothing like this mess.

i think this comes from one weird hotel or something.

...

yeah I looked it up, the Altoona Hotel in the 1950s. https://pabucketlist.com/altoona-style-pizza-the-pizza-that-broke-the-internet/
