Being the favorite "anything" in the state of Illinois, has to mean that the "whatever" is huge or there is a lot of it...Beer, wings, city, park, car...see what I mean? This is an oddity in the "best of" category. The favorite pizza chain in Illinois only has 16 locations in the entire state of Illinois...How in the world is that possible? TEMPO

So let's talk "chain pizza" as a whole. There is an awful lot to choose from, first off. Your Pizza Hut is a standard, Domino's is everywhere, Little Caesars will get you a lot of pizza cheap, Papa John's has tons of locations...and so on.
