Who said that?

Florida's quote of the day

| 7/5/2022

"It was freaking chaos. And I thought, ‘Damn, I’m on to something.’"

-- Sean Ferraro

Sean Ferraro angles his skiff toward several boats full of people in swimsuits and whips out his megaphone.

“Hey, you guys need any pizza?” he says. “I got cheese and pepperoni, hot and fresh. I take cash or card.”

A woman holding a can of beer and half-submerged in the shallow water stares back at him.

“What are you, like, Domino’s to go?” she asks.

“Nah, I’m from Madison Avenue Pizza in Dunedin,” Ferraro says.

“Oh, you’re so freaking smart,” she says. A guy from one of the boats wades through the water, hands Ferraro a credit card and returns with a warm box of pepperoni pizza. The people on the boat scream and cheer.

Ferraro, aka the Pizza Skiff guy, spends most weekends skimming over the waves in his small blue and white boat, delivering pizzas from his Dunedin pizzeria to people on other boats.

You can’t order the pizza in advance. But if you happen to be at the right place at the right time and hear Ferraro’s baritone through his megaphone — Hey man, you want any pizza? — then you’re in luck.
