Playing for Pizza is a short novel about a fallen American football star who can no longer get work in the National Football League and whose agent, as a last resort, signs a deal for him to play for the Parma Panthers, in Parma, Italy. The quarterback's move to a small city in a foreign land leads to a series of cultural misadventures.
The idea for the novel grew out of time John Grisham spent in Italy researching his last novel, The Broker, which was set in Bologna.
