New Dolores Park food vendor: Costco pizza guy

Looks like we just got some more lunch options at the park. This guy was spotted slinging slices, to which spectator wbtc remarked,

I’m not saying that selling slices of pizza in the park is a terrible idea, but Costco pizza, dude? Really?

Say what you will about Costco pizza (although I know people who swear by it), if he’s picking these up for $9.99 a pie, it’s clear that his business model is sound.

Now that the Costco seal has been broken, what’s next, microwave burritos, boxed corn dogs, and Otter Pops?

Update: P.D. Bird has more on the slice slinger:

Once [cold beer, cold water] got busted, this guy tried to sell “cold beer, cold water” and was warned (CBCW James never got a warning) for selling beer, the next day he showed up with Pizza and has been at it ever since. He is a nice enough guy, has a great brooklyn italian accent and even wears the vest and cook jacket that is in the photo. Costco pizza is what it is, but to have it delivered, without having to move/bike/walk anywhere is priceless at 2 pm on a saturday. I think this is great,and he even gives u credit if you are a park regular.

    homygod does that dude piss me off.
    its not the pizza thats the problem its his shit ass presentation.
    if he would take the effort to dress the part (does not require extra money)
    as well as dressing up the presentation then I think people would want to buy a slice. at the moment he looks like some dud with a shitty pizza warmer.

    What’s wrong with Otter Pops? They’re one thing that should never ever ever EVER become artisanal.

    fuck the pizza! i want that shirtless dude on the right.

    Dude is actually selling beer in the other bag he carries, the pizza is just a front, however also profitable for him.

  9. i would by otter pops from anyone in Dolores park. Or do terrible things to get them.

    It’s a free country and as long as he’s not doing anything illegal, then who cares what anyone thinks or feels? If it bothers some people enough, perhaps they should call the authorities or would like to start a movement to change the law and remove him from the park. Or, better yet, leave the park themselves. It’s a public park after all and he has every right to be there. Makes me wonder if any of these people who are complaining are Mission District natives. Or even San Francisco Natives.
