The craving hit. Only Pizza Pit would do.

With his wife wanting the wings, Marcus Fizer got in the car about eight years ago. The drive from Chicago to Ames can be six hours, but it didn’t matter.

It will be harder for him to go undetected this week. Fizer returned to Ames on Wednesday for his induction into the Iowa State athletic hall of fame this weekend.
