Giants QB Tommy DeVito Makes Unpaid Appearance at Pizzeria Amid Fee Dispute
Despite a controversy over his appearance fee, DeVito showed up at Coniglio's Old Fashioned pizzeria, interacting with fans and helping out, while his agent denies allegations of price gouging.
- New York Giants quarterback Tommy DeVito was scheduled to make an appearance at Coniglio's Old Fashioned pizzeria in Morristown, NJ, but the event was cancelled due to a dispute over his appearance fee.
- The pizzeria claimed DeVito's agent, Sean Stellato, doubled the appearance fee from $10,000 to $20,000 after DeVito led the Giants to a victory over the Green Bay Packers.
- Stellato denied the allegations, stating that there was no signed contract and the price was not raised because nothing was ever agreed upon.
- Despite the controversy, DeVito made an unpaid appearance at the pizzeria, where he interacted with fans, signed autographs, and helped out around the shop.
- DeVito, an undrafted rookie, has gained popularity after taking over the starting quarterback role for the Giants and leading them to three straight victories before a recent loss to the New Orleans Saints.
