Receipt shows loyal Vancouver hockey fan cancelled pizza pick-up because game was tied

Nothing takes precedence over getting your pizza home before it gets cold. That is usually true unless you're a die hard Vancouver Canucks fan and the game is too close to call.

The latest restaurant receipt with a comment to go viral shows a loyal Canucks fan cancelling his pizza pickup because his team was tied with the San Jose Sharks in a tense Game 2 battle Friday night — and he refused to leave his house.

A picture of the receipt, posted to the r/funny subreddit Saturday by BrandiBean, proves hockey is always king in Canada even if it means letting the pie get as cold as the rink.

The receipt, originally for one large pizza for pick-up with extra chicken, was voided and turned into a delivery because "canucks have tied game, [customer] cannot leave house to pickup."

The fan that ordered this particular large pie, however, probably lost his appetite anyway.  The Canucks lost Game 2 of their Western Conference quarter-final with the Sharks in a heart-breaking, 3-2 overtime loss.
