For most sports fans, Super Bowl Sunday is the most important day of the year. But, for a lot of us, it鈥檚 the tastiest day of the year.
The two most popular items ordered for the big game last year, , was chicken wings and pizza.
This is not a surprise to Jim Robertson, the owner of Ledo Pizza on River Road in Bethesda, Maryland.
鈥淲e鈥檒l sell 600 to 700 pizzas today,鈥� Robertson said. 鈥淎nd probably 2,000 wings.鈥�
On a normal Sunday, that Ledo location sells around 250 pizzas.
Robertson has spent the last 34 years working on Super Bowl Sunday.
鈥淲hen we opened in 1992, it was the last time the Commanders were actually in the Super Bowl. So, it’s been a long dry spell, but, we’ve grown a lot over those years,鈥� Robertson said.
Super Bowl Sunday and Halloween are the two biggest days for Robertson鈥檚 Ledo Pizza, which means it鈥檚 all hands on deck.
鈥淓verybody works on Super Bowl Sunday,鈥� Robertson said. 鈥淲hen we hire people, we definitely say for Super Bowl, you have to work.鈥�
Longtime customers of Robertson鈥檚 Ledo Pizza know that many of his employees have been a part of his team for a very long time, like supervisor Fatou Manneh.
鈥淚’ve been working here for over 15 years,鈥� Manneh said. 鈥淚 feel I鈥檝e worked every single one.鈥�

鈥淭he phone rings like crazy,” Manneh said. 鈥淭he chaos, I don’t know, I love it.鈥�
“It’s super busy, super crazy, but it’s fun,” she added.
Sunday is such a busy day that Robertson said they posted signs in the restaurant and on top of pizza boxes reminding people to order early for the big game, a move that proved successful as they received their first order last Monday.
