It's Not Cool To Throw Pizzas On Walter White's Roof, Says Vince Gilligan



Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan has had it up to here with the pizza-throwers who've been harassing the family living in the real-life White home in Albuquerque. 

Apparently, Breaking Bad fans have been paying tribute to the show by tossing entire pizzas onto the house's roof. In a season three episode of the AMC drama, meth kingpin and failing family man Walter White angrily roofs an entire 'za after an attempt to make amends with his wife Skyler.

Gilligan took a few moments of his podcast for Breaking Bad spinoff Better Call Saul to describe the problem. He says the homeowners have been good sports about people taking pictures of their famous house, but that pelting their home with pizza crosses the line:
"There is nothing funny or original or cool about throwing a pizza on this lady's roof. It's just not funny. It's been done before. You're not the first."
Jonathan Banks, who plays enforcer Mike Ehrmantraut on both shows, also appeared on the podcast. He had a message for would-be pie slingers: "If I catch you doing it, I will hunt you down."
So there you have it. Keep your pizzas off Walter White's roof or Mike Ehrmantraut will find you, wherever you may be, and straight-up kill you.
You can listen to the podcast here. The pizza discussion starts around 3:05.
