In a plea that might end up getting them more pizza than less, 343 Industries is asking people to stop sending pizza to their office. The short version of how we got here is that after Halo: Master Chief Collection was announced for PC, a Reddit user offered to buy the first employee to respond a pizza. 343's Community Director Brian Jarrard wasted no time taking the fan up on the offer and provided all the info necessary to send it. So, of course, people sent them pizza.
It has begun. Pizzas are actually showing up at the studio?! 🍕🍕 @Gamecheat13 you're too kind. #mcc pic.twitter.com/0hZgk80KDa

But it didn't stop, and we have a handful of tweets for you to see below, but the company has received so many orders that they're practically drowning in pizza. They've asked the community to please stop sending them pizza, but let's be honest, this will probably be a running gag for a few weeks. At least the Halo crew and the 343 Industries staff will be fed well.
The Halo community is awesome. We're excited, too! Please, don't send anymore pizzas to 343 Industries. The building receptionist isn't here so it's getting logistically challenging and we really don't want to see food to go waste.
