Crop Circles Promote Whole Wheat Pizza

To advertise its 100 percent whole-wheat pizzas, Papa John’s flattened about six acres’ worth. The delectable crop circle at left was created in a wheat field in Commerce City, so in- and outbound Denver International passengers can get a nice big eyeful of pie in the sky.

For those that may find this particularly inspirational, a company called Circlemakers specializes in producing crop circles for brand names. Clients have included Microsoft, Nike, Greenpeace (nothin’ like a single serving of in-flight guilt), Hello Kitty, BP, and The History Channel. Oh yeah, and there’s also Ad-Air, a gigantorama billboard maker that’s infinitely less creative than a crop circle, but it could probably cover up a bad wheat-shaving nick with ease.

Many thanks to Keith at HR Bartender for the Papa John’s tip.
