Pizza Hut adds math problems to
blog for Pi Day contest
Pizza Hut adds together math and
pizza for some mobile fun in a Pi Day contest on its blog challenging consumers
to solve several problems for a chance to win 3.14 years of free pizza.
The math problems will appear on
the Hut Life blog at 8 a.m. ET on March 14, which is informally recognized as
National Pi Day, celebrating the irrational number whose first three digits are
3, 1 and 4. The chain chose its blog for the contest to make it easier for
consumers to engage.
“Our Hut Life blog is a hub of
activity for the Pizza Hut brand worldwide,” said Courtney Moscovic, senior
associate manager of public relations at Pizza Hut. “We are always sharing
unique stories about our restaurants and employees on the blog, so it is a
great place for customers to see what life at Pizza Hut is all about.
“We wanted to use that platform
to share the Pi Day problems because it will make it easy for fans to find and
answer the problems as opposed to having to scroll through news feeds on social
channels,” she said.
“We’ll be directing our social
followers to blog.pizzahut.com to see Professor Conway’s problems and all
submissions will be received via the blog comments, which are time-stamped to
verify the winners.”
