Amarillo Pizza Joint Trolls Neighbor After Recent Raid

I love the fact that Amarillo can have a sense of humor. I mean, we need to in this day and age. Life is not fun if we can't laugh at ourselves or some of the things going on around our city.

One Amarillo business owner did just that. Made a situation that happened right next door to him and took time to make a funny post. Of course, the situation itself wasn’t funny—it never is. If there is a way to put a smile on people's faces, why not?

Recently, there were a few raids and arrests in Amarillo at multiple massage parlors. This is not the first time this has happened, and unfortunately, it probably won't be the last. One of the massage places that ended up being raided was on Olsen Boulevard.

A Raid That Sparked a Reaction

The place on Olsen is in the same shopping center as Big Jim's Pizza Company, and they took the time to make us chuckle in their post:

As soon as our neighbors open back up and you park on our side of the parking lot. You better buy a pizza and a beer or we’re calling your wife!

 

Turning Headlines Into Humor

I mean, we can't change the fact that the raid happened or the arrests. Big Jim’s chose to address it with humor. That is the beauty of social media. I am here for the fun posts. I am here for the light-hearted posts that make me smile. We need more funny and less doom and gloom on social media.

Why Humor Still Matters in Amarillo

Thank you to Big Jim's Pizza Co. for giving us that opportunity recently. The response from Amarillo varied from telling them they were funny to suggesting they ask for a five-star review as well. Yes, Amarillo, we have a sense of humor.
