Perhaps not big news to everyone, but the original Sammy’s Pizza in Hibbing was damaged by fire yesterday. (Well, actually the original was in Keewatin before moving to a different location in Hibbing and then to this spot, but that’s just the sort of local local history tedium that you don’t need).
The Hibbing Daily Tribune has the complete story (and great photos in today’s print edition). This was kind of like batting practice in spot news for them, as Sammy’s is just two blocks from the newspaper.
The owner says they’ll be back up and running in a couple weeks. Let’s hope so. Sammy’s is one of the great classic pizza places in northern Minnesota. For non-Rangers, picture your favorite non-chain pizza place, the place where you take people you like. Picture it on fire. That’s what a lot of us are going through right now.
