YC served Domino's in NYC? I lived there most of my life, swear I never even knew one existed.

If this was downtown (Tribeca/Soho), John's would have been the choice. Talk to them a couple days in advance, I'm sure they could handle it. If not, go to 3 or 4 places and get a variety. Just not Domino's.

It was Papa Johns and it was due to a matter of scale. What local pizzeria could handle 300 pies?

They had both Papa Johns and Dominos. It was free pizza ... why are we discussing this?

It's not a huge deal, but it's a matter of NYC culture. It just would have made a better impression to do it differently. Little things can matter.

Have you priced out buying good pizza vs cheap pizza for 800 people?

Yeah, it's true, it's probably possible but a logistical nightmare. Can't actually fault them for that, was a good event all around.

Ah bummer, I thought that was funny.

For what it's worth I agree. It just sounds like the OP couldn't find anything big to complain about, so picked on Paul's style rather than the substance of his talk.
