This was the latest in his quest to visit every Pizza Ranch.

Halkias began his mission in 2014 and took him to four states he had never visited before.

“This is simply the initial quest. I have now visited all active sites, but activity continues to grow. New locations will open in the future, so call it a post-quest if you want, but I’ll eventually visit those too,” said legendary ranch fan Jason Halkias.

Pizza Ranch was grateful for their loyal customers and wanted to make their visits as good as possible.

“I think it’s important to show appreciation for someone’s loyalty and dedication by visiting each location, so making this day special, especially for him, is important to me,” said the venue’s general manager. Sioux Center, Zach Dykstra.

For reaching his goal, Pizza Ranch gave Jason a T-shirt that read “Legendary Ranch Fan” and a certificate showing he visited all 224 locations.
