Still time to enter caption contest - what are these 4 guys talking about?

Posted by Fred Steiner on September 4, 2020 - 9:51am

Still time to enter!

Write a caption for this photo and maybe go home with a 1-item, 14-inch Padrone's Pizza.

This could be a tough one, but on the other hand, it has opportunities for a very interest caption. We wonder what those four guys are saying. But, the caption doesn't have to focus on those guys, it's simply a suggestion.

And, we know that there's ample opportunity for other captions.
