Who delivered Michael Jordan 'poisoned' pizza? A Bulls fan who has his own version of the story

On June 10, 1997, Craig Fite was working a new job as an assistant manager at the Pizza Hut in Park City, Utah. Not long before the store’s 11 p.m. closing, a delivery order came in from the Marriott down the street.

One large, thin crust, extra pepperoni.

The location caused ears to perk up, because everyone in Park City knew the Chicago Bulls were staying there during the NBA Finals against the Utah Jazz.

The next night was a critical Game 5 of a series that was tied at the time, 2-2.
