Various pizza restaurants are celebrating National Pi day by offering many special deals and offers.

The number π (Pi) is a mathematical constant, the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter, commonly approximated as 3.14159. It has been represented by the Greek letter "π" since the mid-18th century, though it is also sometimes spelled out as "pi" .

In year 2009, the United States House of Representatives confirmed the designation of Pi Day. 

The word pizza was first documented in 997 AD in Gaeta, Italy, and successively in different parts of Central and Southern Italy. The precursor of pizza was most likely to be the focaccia, a flat bread recognized to the Romans as panis focacius, to which toppings were then added.
