This is a remarkable and historical event for this great cryptocurrency - Bitcoin. Currently, in my area, no restaurants accept Bitcoin for payment for Pizza. However, this celebration is an opportunity to recall some other memorable events about Bitcoin, the cryptocurrency that have made a landmark in the financial system of the world.
On January 2009: Nakamoto creates 50 BTC and transfers 10 to Hal Finney, an early Bitcoin adopter.
On May 2010: Laszlo Hanyecz makes the first real world Bitcoin transaction. The crypto enthusiast paid 10,000 BTC for two large pizzas in what's now regarded as the first real world Bitcoin transaction . Back then, 10,000 BTC was worth around $40. He never knew that May 22 would forever be celebrated as Bitcoin pizza day.
On July 2010: Bitcoin starts trading. By the end of the year, 1 BTC was worth around $0.80. A run down of some remarkable events can be seen here: (https://www.nasdaq.com/articles/celebrating-bitcoin-pizza-day%3A-a-%24300-million-dinner). Basically, Bitcoin have impacted the financial system of the world.

I think it's clear why businesses want to ACCEPT bitcoin... what we need are folks finding reasons to SPEND bitcoin.
So instead of focusing on a new business accepting bitcoin, try to find ways to have places you shop currently know that you would like to SPEND bitcoin there.
Would a bitcoin discount, or a bitcoin rewards program incentivize you to start doing this?
If I ever open a shop in my neighborhood this is the first thing I advertised outside the door of my shop to further promote bitcoins in our city since it is already known here, it's better to light things up even more by doing such things because it may be the first step to push the other stores and shops to do so as well. Right now we are in the era of promoting bitcoin so that it might become one of the official currencies all around the world with less volatility and as an enthusiast you can also help on your own way.

If you can’t find a restaurant that accepts payment in BTC, try to get a restaurant owner who would be interested in crypto. If you happen to find a Bitcoin enthusiast they would totally love to get funded through a pizza delivery. I think that will be the best way to celebrate Bitcoin pizza day.

The easiest thing everyone can do is when they are cashing out, simply ask "may I pay using the bitcoin lightning network?"
If customers don't ask, businesses jave no reason to start.
Now you also have to be ready to spend... which most folks aren't.
Welcome to every day of my life.

This pizza day was unique one, it was celebrated every year to remember the value of bitcoin now and then. And we should not loss it at any concern. Holding your bitcoin to the next will gives you huge. This was the symbolic representation of the bitcoin day. Instead of making huge concise over the people, people should have huge concise over the bitcoin.
Maybe some time need to remember with bitcoin pizza days because become good experience for the future keep holding several assets from bitcoin and never all in for selling. If still see by the people who sell their bitcoin to buy pizza maybe he got bad memorize and try can get back his bitcoin, most disappointed if not selling bitcoin and converted with pizza maybe he can get all pizza store around the world right now and have much money.

It's an important historical event where it became one of the crucial reasons why we have bitcoins circulated all over the world today. of course it was a great sacrifice by the Pizza guy but the event that occurred that year was really needed in order for us to learn how possible it is to have this secured digital money and we made clear that it is possible to do so until we have proven it for the past years and here we are right now ripping the fruit of their sacrifices and taking advantage to the flow of the crypto market.
Got my pizza!

Those pizza boxes do look familiar so you did buy from the same place (not exact place of course) as Laszlo did.

Today is Bitcoin Pizza Day. Bitcoin Pizza Day is celebrated on this day every year on 22 May. 12 Years Ago Today (22 Years) Gives 10000 bitcoins for two pizzas. Today its value is 302610000$.

Happy bitcoin 12th pizza day everyone. Today I also ate a pizza like Laszlo Hanyecz ate on this day in 2010 But I paid in fiat currency czz 
Who knows if BTC of four dollars becomes 30 thousand dollars again.
These are the two pizza"s which cost 10000 BTC, and that current market value of about 298987000$

You would think 12 years later we would be able to have the option to pay directly for the pie with bitcoin by now.
Oh well.
We atleast can purchase giftcards (as many have mentioned from bitrefill) or load the bitcoin on to a crypto debit card to be able to buy the slices instead.
Still not the same but it is only the beginning.. a decade later.
More innovated ways might be needed for a more mainstream solution.
What are your plans for bitcoin pizza day this year?
Bummer that it falls on a Sunday!
I've only got 3 restaurants that accept bitcoin lightning network in my area and all three are closed on Sundays...
However, Tuesday, I am planning a get together in Brecksville, Ohio at Juice Lab.
8215 Chippewa Rd, Brecksville, OH 44141
https://www.facebook.com/events/773334983654515/?sfnsn=mo
If you're interested in ordering and paying using the bitcoin lightning network, the owner, Dom will accept payment.
It's been about a year since I first used the lightning network at Juice Lab, so perhaps we can call Tuesday "Bitcoin Juice Day," haha.
Happy early bitcoin pizza day!

I kinda wish we were still in those days of BTC
the simple times. I'd go for some pizza if there was an option for crypto payment, but I also wish restaurants would do a one off every year if they can have a regular option for crypto payments. That would be a nice start. 
Got a call from my Bitcoin buddy today to say I was being picked up for a drive to get Pizza's.
Bitcoin was used sold for FIAT indirectly to buy 2 Pizzas with extra cheese.
I wasnt planning on having a real Pizza today, I was working on an Pizza day art project
which still isnt finished but still happy to have Pizza and chat about Laszlo and Bitcoin.

Everyone doing promos for this day - legendary.
I would like to forget about it, the biggest mistake in my life. I don't want to talk about it in rest of my life if I was lazlo
Also consider this;
As at when Lazlo bought his pizza, btc was worth about $0.004 and 10,000 of it should be about $41. So, it still easy for anyone to buy two pizzas with $41. Even if he didn't spend it for pizza, eventually he would have blown it on other things.
2010 (May 22) $0.004
2012 $5
2014 $450
2016 $450
2018 $9000
2020 $9000
2022 $30000
Great chart! Hope it's right. We'll see if the trend continues...
Be ready to hold 2+ years before we break above 30k?
The first 4 years (22 May, 2010 - 22 May, 2014) brought ca 100000 times rise (0,79% per day),
the second 4 years (22 May, 2014 - 22 May, 2018) brought ca 20 times rise (0,21% per day),
the last 4 years (22 May, 2018 - 22 May, 2022) brought ca 3 times rise (0,08% per day).
