BOSTON (AP) – A popular New England pizza chain has shut down several sites abruptly.
Patrons and workers at Papa Gino's sites tweeted Sunday about the surprise closures, which included several sites in the Boston area and neighboring New Hampshire.
The company did not provide the complete list of closures and a company spokesperson did not immediately comment.
The Dedham-based company had previously said it had 150 stores. As of Sunday, his website listed only 97 locations.
Pick up a pizza on the day of the match? Your Papa Gino's local could be closed for good. It's off at # Mansfield Thoroughfare. The employees are blind. They told us that they absolutely did not know that they would now be unemployed. @WBZ pic.twitter.com/zXRUFN7A6Q

Papa Gino's was founded in 1961 in Boston as Piece O 'Pizza. He changed his name to Papa Gino in 1968 and spread to Boston, other parts of Massachusetts and Connecticut, Rhode Island and New Hampshire.
The company also owns D'Angelo grilled sandwiches. Guests reported that some of these restaurants also had signs stating that they were permanently closed on Sundays.
