The
owner of a Fort Pierce, Fla., pizzeria said he was surprised to hear
his recent world record for the longest line of pizzas may have already
been broken.
Scott Van Duzer and about a dozen volunteers at his Big Apple Pizza and Pasta restaurant made 722 pizzas and
lined
them
up
end to end, creating a line of pizzas 722 feet 1 inch long, the Palm Beach (Fla.) Post reported .
The
May 17 feat, which the restaurant owner said was designed to draw
attention to his Van Duzer Foundation for families struck by tragedy,
was certified by the Guinness Book of World Records.
However, Italian
cruise
ship company Costa Cruises said 826 freshly cooked pizzas created a 725-foot line at a Sunday event in Sydney.
"Records are made to break," Van Duzer said. "But I was
anticipating
it to last a little longer than three weeks."
Van Duzer said he and his team still have one
victory
to celebrate -- their event raised about $8,600 for a firefighter whose home was
destroyed
by a wildfire, while the Sydney event raised only $5,000.
"At least we beat 'em there," Van Duzer said.
