Comcast Tries to Lure Seattleites With Pizza Parties

With Seattle city leadership complaining about the lack of broadband competition in the city and making noise about building their own networks, Comcast has taken to a unique approach to win the hearts and minds of the cities apartment dwellers. According to the local news outlets, Comcast has taken to throwing pizza parties to warm locals to their brand, insisting that if "we can we can get people in front of our products they can see the advantages we have over our competitors and learn to like those products."

Reddit users are having a little fun at Comcast's expense in regards to the new marketing strategy, offering up some pizza party advice -- Comcast style:

quote:
1.) Take all the pizza before it arrives.

2.) Call up the party host AS the pizza company.

3.) Inform them the pizza delivery is down between the hours of "Now till now+3 hours." But if they want to buy the pizza+hotdog bundle together for an additional 100 bucks, it'll increase their pizza delivery speed by 10 minutes.

4.) 6 months from now, you will begin receiving additional bills with charges for the pizza you already ate. But don't worry, as long as you kept the receipt, we'll put in a "Pizza Research Request" and we MIGHT stop billing you.

5.) There is a pizza cap of 4 slices. Additional slices are $10 each. But if you eat our special "Comcast StreamSlices", they won't count against that.

6.) The pizza delivery guy MIGHT fall asleep on the couch.
