The timer is ticking down, the heat is on, and the proverbial next round of Pizza Cup voting is nearly cooked up and ready to be served. Yes, round 32 of the Pizza Cup will close on Tuesday, Oct 22 at noon, so pizza devotees who have yet to vote for their favorite pie purveyor had better get cracking.

Upsets and plot twists are sure to ensue after those votes are tallied up and the results are announced. After all, this year's endeavor to crown the best pizzeria in town has already had its share of surprises, with newbies like Lievito and La Villa making top ten debuts in their first ever turns in the competition, and more established eateries vaulting from the margins and making it into the first round of Top 32 pizza joints in town. Prime examples of the latter include Legend Beer (previously #58), Dominos (previously #45), The Veggie Table (previously #78), Nbeer Pub (previously unranked), Lakers (previously #48), Pizza Hut (previously #42), Tribe (previously #65), and Lily's (previously #47).
