To celebrate Papa John’s partner James Harden winning the 63rd MVP Award, the pizza chain is offering Harden-inspired “MVPizzas” to Houston-area customers. Each extra large “MVPizza” is topped with ingredients that pay homage to Harden’s one-of-a-kind game:

  • Black olives because of his trademark beard
  • Three-cheese blend because of his league-leading 265 three-pointers
  • Jalapeños because of his hot shooting
  • Italian sausage because of his Euro step
  • Extra sauce because … have you ever watched him play?

In honor of Harden receiving the 63rd MVP Award, “MVPizzas” were limited to the first 63 carry-out orders (one per customer), exclusively at the Papa John’s restaurant at 8588 Westheimer Road, beginning at 10 a.m. on June 26. Orders were available for carryout only, because like Harden, these pizzas do not travel.

“On behalf of all Papa John’s Houston stores, I’d like to congratulate our partner James Harden on his prolific season and well-deserved MVP trophy,” says Keith Sullins, Houston Papa John’s franchisee. “We’re excited to celebrate this 63rd MVP award with 63 ‘MVPizzas’ for local pizza lovers, and delicious discounts for Houston fans today only.”
