The pizza chain is the largest in Colorado with 800 employees, some of whom work part-time.[2] On January 1, 2013, Blackjack Pizza was acquired by Askar Brands. HistoryThe first Blackjack Pizza store opened on June 29, 1983 in Federal Heights with a second store opening in Greeley by February 1984.[1] By 1986, Blackjack grew to six corporate stores and one franchisee.[3] The company headquarters, by 1999, was in what was then the Castlewood census-designated place in unincorporated Arapahoe County, Colorado, near Englewood.[4][5] The territory became a part of Centennial,[6] which incorporated in 2001 with all of the territory of the Castlewood CDP.[7] In 1988, Blackjack became a franchisor with the sale of several corporate stores to franchisees. {{Asof|2018}} Blackjack Pizza operates 45 stores in five states.[8] Blackjack's tagline is "Better Pizza, Better Price."[9] Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold, the high school seniors who committed the 1999 Columbine High School massacre worked part-time for $5.15 an hour at the Blackjack Pizza store in Littleton, Colorado, and Harris eventually became shift manager.[10] At this pizza parlor, the two teens made important acquaintances who were inadvertently connected to the attack at Columbine High School.[11] The two teens were able to meet Mark Manes, the man who sold them the TEC-9 that they used in the attack, through the connection of Philip Duran, a fellow employee at the Blackjack Pizza store where they worked.[12][13][14]Denver Broncos wide receiver Rod Smith appeared frequently in Blackjack commercials until October 2008 when Blackjack rolled out a new ad campaign featuring the cast of Impulse Theater.[15] Smith's slogan for Blackjack Pizza ads was "Stick with the home team."[16][17]PhilanthropyBlackjack Pizza donated money to a number of organizations. In 2005, Blackjack donated $8,842.40 to the Bonfils Blood Center Foundation, which was selected by Blackjack Pizza to be the winner of the "80 Cent Pizza Promotion".[8][18] The pizzeria also sponsored a Future Farmers of America program in Fort Morgan, Colorado.[19] In 2006, the franchise offered a deal to customers that every time they ordered the "Children's Hospital Special", the franchise would give a dollar to the Children's Hospital in Aurora, Colorado.[20] AcquisitionsOn January 1, 2013, Blackjack Pizza was acquired by Askar Brands, a Michigan-based company.[21] See also
