Report: None Of This Would Be Happening If Eagle Boys Cheap Tuesdays Were Still Around

Done away are the days of a $3.95 Eagle Boys pizza, and as are the days of world peace. 

Everything has gone increasingly downhill following the pizzeria chain's closure in 2017. 

114 locations were acquired by Pizza Hut - and though an Eagle Pizzeria still exists in Prospect, their CT deals starting at $8.95 miss the mark when put up against the OG.

9 years on from Eagle Boys collapse, the global geopolitical situation has only become increasingly volatile.  

The Advocate caught up with Dr James Tosston, Associate Professor in Politics at Betoota University, to discuss whether or not this link can be chalked up to coincidence. 

“Definitely not,” said Tosston. 

“The closure of Eagle Boys was a severe hit to the Australian way of life, and there was massive unrest observable in our nation's population,” 

Tosston recalls being told Dominoes and Pizza Hut would adequately fill the hole left by Eagle Boys - a misunderstanding he says is as grave as it is now as it was back then. 

“The government did nothing to fight back against its closure, and that’s really where the problem started for us,” he said. 

“People lost trust in their politicians. It became clear they weren't acting with the nation's best interests in mind,”

As inflation rates stay high, a CT meal deal would be the saving grace Australian families need right now. 

Tosston is urging citizens to reach out to their local MPs to address the issue.
