Ok, let’s get something straight. In the hullabaloo and pomp and circumstance building up to this Atlanta United vs Inter Miami match, Lionel Messi posted an Instagram Story showing a less-than-ideal version of an Argentine pizza from Miami. The video posted the night before the match, more or less proving he wasn’t making the trip to Atlanta.
Yes, I did actually call the pizza place to confirm that they served a pizza to Lionel Messi. The gentleman on the phone chuckled when I asked, and he said “Yeah man, the order came in as a delivery like an hour ago and our manager was the one who actually made the delivery to him and his family.
