Scott Volpe, 24, juggles three practice rubber pizza doughs as he demonstrates his acrobatic abilities as he fires up pizzas at his Fiamme Pizza Napoletana portable wood-fired pizza oven outside of a downtown-area bar in Tucson, Ariz. Volpe won first place for his acrobatic routine at the U.S. Pizza Team competition in Ohio which qualifies him for the World Pizza Championships in Parma, Italy. Photo taken Wednesday, Feb. 10, 2016.
