With the fictional home of the Ninja Turtles being in an abandoned subway station, it was only fitting for the Underground Deliveries test to take place at a local New York City subway station. Select pizza lovers in Manhattan experienced an underground delivery by texting the Turtle Emoji to a dedicated hotline number which then placed an order for Pizza Hut pizza. Once ordered, Pizza Hut promptly prepared and delivered the piping hot pizza within minutes directly to the marked “Pizza Drop Zone” within the subway station.
A video of the Underground Delivery test in action can be viewed below:
In addition to its Underground Delivery test, Pizza Hut is unveiling a handful of other elements to its partnership with the TMNT film including a Pizza Power Mobile AR Game, specialty mutant mayhem themed pizza boxes, co-branded TV ads and cameos within the film coming out on August 2, 2023.
