A man wearing a Bob Dylan backstage pass who ordered 178 pizzas from a Massachusetts pizza parlor but never picked them up, has agreed to hand over the dough.

A lawyer for the New Jersey man says his client is a "decent enough" guy with no criminal record who felt bad about the prank. Attorney Sean Cleary did not reveal his client's name and did not say how much he'll repay. The pizzas he ordered were worth about $4,000.

Workers at Antonio's in the college town of Amherst stayed until 5:30 a.m. on Nov. 20 making the pies. The man ordered them shortly after a Dylan concert at the nearby University of Massachusetts.

He said he would return in several hours and deliver them to Dylan's crew. But he never returned and the manager called police.

Some of the pizzas were given away, but most were thrown out.

It's somewhat hard to believe that pizza parlors can still fall for large order pizza pranks.You might think that with all of our modern technology there could have been a way to confirm this order before filling it...like a phone call, maybe? I suppose if a guy were to show up at my pizza shop wearing a backstage pass from a well-publicized concert of a big name performer, I might start seeing the dollar signs and throw precaution straight out the window.

Apparently this "decent enough" guy has had a change of heart, perhaps realizing not only the cost involved, but the lost hours of labor that may never be compensated for.

Since reports did not state how much would be paid back or even if this guy was actually affiliated with he Dylan tour (which was doubtful), there could be very little profit left to make up. I'm sure there were better things this crew could have been doing until 5:30 in the morning than making pies.

I'm also sure if the guy was part of the tour and didn't show up, the matter would have been taken care of. So, it's probably safe to assume that Mr. Dylan had nothing to do with this ginormous order.

I guess when Bob croaked the tunes "Like a Rolling Stone" or "Times They Are A-Changin'," he really understood what he was singing about.
