Texas Pizza Drone Delivery Goes Hilariously Wrong

Somehow ordering pizza has always felt futuristic; you call someone and suddenly pizza arrives at your door!

Now Texans are literally getting pizza dropped from the sky.

Little Caesars Is Testing Pizza Drones in Texas

Little Caesars is currently testing drone pizza delivery in North Texas through a partnership with Flytrex, a company using flying drones to deliver food in just a few minutes.

The pilot program is happening in Wylie, where customers can order Little Caesars through the Flytrex app and have food flown directly to their homes by drone. According to reports, the drones can deliver multiple pizzas, drinks, and sides within just a few minutes, completely avoiding traffic and traditional delivery delays.

While the idea sounds incredible for anyone who has ever tracked a pizza order while aggressively hungry, the rollout is already hitting a few bumps.

A video making the rounds online appears to show one delivery drone dropping a pizza straight into someone’s yard instead of making a smooth futuristic landing.

Viral Texas Pizza Drone Video Has Internet Laughing

Of course, it didn’t take long for social media to find the downside to this drone delivery.

The clip immediately sparked jokes online because, let’s be honest, watching a pizza literally fall from the sky feels like the most chaotic version of “delivery” possible.

The internet quickly started pointing out all the ways drone pizza delivery could become extra complicated in Texas.

Strong winds alone feel like a major obstacle. Then there’s rain, summer storms, power lines, neighborhood dogs, and the very real possibility of someone trying to chase a flying pizza drone down the street.

You also just know at least one Texas bird is eventually going to mistake a pepperoni pizza for an opportunity.

Still, despite the rocky start, the technology itself is pretty impressive.

Texas May Be the Future of Pizza Delivery

As weird as it sounds, drone food delivery is becoming increasingly common across parts of Texas, especially in growing suburban areas where companies are testing faster automated delivery systems.

And while this particular pizza drop may not have gone perfectly, the internet attention is probably doing exactly what companies hoped for: getting people talking.

Yes, the technology might be a little off, but the idea of hot pizza flying through the Texas sky before dramatically crash-landing into someone’s yard feels exactly like the kind of future we were promised!
