Any Camaro owners going for free Papa John's pizza tomorrow?

In celebration of the 25th anniversary of Papa John's and John Schnatter finding his long lost Chevrolet Camaro, the chain is giving away free pizza to Camaro owners on August 26, 2009.

Anyone have a Camaro and planning to cash in on the free pizza? Bonus for pictures of your Camaro.

That is a pretty sweet deal. How did you even hear about it. This is the first I heard of it. Bad marketing team perhaps?

In any case, is it worth hiring a tow truck in this case?

• While towing that out for a (kind of not great) pizza may not be worth it, you should pull it out and restore it! That's a beautiful model year!

John Schnatter, the Papa in Papa John's Pizza, has been looking for his 1971 1/2 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 for nearly 20 years. He sold it in 1983 for $2,800 and used part of that to rescue his father's business and the rest to begin the pizza chain that has gone global. He has spent more than 100 times that much trying to get it back.

Starting off with a FBI agent, then a web appeal and a $25,000 reward, he got nowhere. The reward swelled to $250,000, and then he got on television and talked about trying to get the car back. Some Indiana readers heard about it, and a web engine search led them to Schnatter's story on Jalopnik. Those readers, the Sloanes, thought they knew the owner of the car in question, because they had owned it and recently sold it.

The new owner -- only the third one, after Schnatter -- was a Kentucky man named Jeff Robinson of Flatwoods, Kentucky. He had transformed the original Z28 into an 825 horsepower dragster doing 9.55 quarter-miles at 141 mph. Still, he was unsurprisingly content to sell his car back to Schnatter for the $250,000 reward. The Sloanes also got $25,000 for the assist.

And now their gain may be your gain – if you're one of the Camaro faithful. Papa John is so happy to have his car back that he's giving away free pizza to all Camaro owners tomorrow, Wednesday, August 26. One pizza per Camaro, one visit per Camaro. Although we suppose if you can get that transforming Bumblebee Camaro suit from the Mexican Chevy dealer, you might earn a couple more pies. Thanks to everyone for the tips!
