If you can summarize why your Dad is an All-Pro Papa in 140 characters or fewer you could win free pizza for a year.

The folks at Papa John’s are looking for tweets with the hashtag #AllProPapa before Tuesday. You’ll need a Twitter account to enter, but what better time to open one? Free pizza could be in your future!

Papa John’s has teamed with former Indianapolis Colts head coach Tony Dungy this Father’s Day to recognize fathers for being heroes in their own homes. Papa John’s and All Pro Dad executives will determine the winner, judging submissions on creativity and love conveyed in 140 characters or fewer.

In addition to the Twitter contest, $1 from every Papa John’s gift card purchased online during June, up to $30,000, will be donated to All Pro Dad, an organization dedicated to helping men become better fathers.
