It was Domino's. I don't think he's part of the business anymore.
The new advertising campaign has brought back the 30 minute thing.
It's not 30 minute delivery, rather "what you could have done with
the 30 minutes rather than cooking." I'm sure there's still some
fools that think they will be getting guaranteed delivery in 30
minutes. Good marketing with a target audience of idiots.
