I verified this on snopes.com. This occurred at Southwood Hospital
in Chula Vista, CA in 1993.
FBI and Pizza
FBI agents conducted a raid of a psychiatric hospital in San Diego that was
under investigation for medical insurance fraud.
After hours of reviewing thousands of medical records, the dozens of agents
had worked up quite an appetite. The agent in charge of the investigation
called a nearby pizza parlor with delivery service to order a quick dinner
for his colleagues.
The following telephone conversation took place:
Agent: Hello. I'd like to order 19 large pizzas and 67 cans of soda.
Pizza Man: And where would you like them delivered?
Agent: We're over at the psychiatric hospital.
Pizza Man: The psychiatric hospital?
Agent: That's right. I'm an FBI agent.
Pizza Man: You're an FBI agent?
Agent: That's correct. Just about everybody here is.
Pizza Man: And you're at the psychiatric hospital?
Agent: That's correct. And make sure you don't go through the front doors.
We have them locked. You'll have to go around to the back service
entrance to deliver the pizzas.
Pizza Man: And you say you're all FBI agents?
Agent: That's right. How soon can you have them here?
Pizza Man: Everyone at the psychiatric hospital is an FBI agent?
Agent: That's right. We've been here all day and we're starving.
Pizza Man: How are you going to pay for all of this?
Agent: I have my checkbook right here.
Pizza Man: And you're all FBI agents?
Agent: That's right. Everyone here is an FBI agent. Can you remember to
bring the pizzas and sodas to the service entrance in the rear?
We have the front doors locked.
Pizza Man: I don't think so... (and he hangs up phone on agent.)
According to Snopes, they got their pizza, but had to pick them up.
I think if I was that pizza man I would have the same reaction. Who wouldn't?
