In a Dec. 12 Instagram post from Barstool Sports, Portnoy says he was in Tampa to “find a bunch of guys” for former Bucs coach Jon Gruden’s Quarterback Camp. He also found time to stop by Ybor City’s Due Amici Pizza & Pasta Bar, which is located at 1724 E 7th Ave.
For those unfamiliar with the “One Bite Pizza Review,” the short video segments consist of the 47-year-old ordering a cheese pie and actually taking several bites before rating the pizza on a scale of 1-10, decimals and all.
In this case, after confusing 7th Avenue for “Bourbon Street” and “Arbor Street,” the Barstool founder gives Due Amici a 6.1 rating, while emphasizing that you should be drunk while eating it.
“Which is fine,” says Portnoy, “this is a drunk Bourbon Street pizza.”
Last April, Portnoy did a bit of a pizza tour of Tampa Bay, stopping by local spots including Forbici in Tampaโs Hyde Park Village, St. Peteโs Violet Stone, Clearwaterโs Cristinoโs Coal Oven Pizza, and the Nona Slice House in Safety Harbor.
It’s unclear if Portnoy plans to review more local pizza joints or is scouting locations for a Bay area Barstool Sports bar and restaurant.
