Pizza Hut to Award the Sweetest Tweets with the Sweetest Treats to Celebrate Valentine's Day

DALLAS, Feb. 11 /PRNewswire/ -- Whether you are a modern day Casanova, a hopeless romantic or just love to flirt, your favorite pick up line may earn you more than just a smile or grimace this Valentine's Day.

Pizza Hut is inviting consumers with silver tongues to share pick up lines – the best, the worst and the cheesiest – by tweeting @pizzahut for the chance to win a single order of HERSHEY'S® Chocolate Dunkers®, Pizza Hut's chocolate-topped dessert sticks.  Even if you are more of the target for amateur Cupid remarks than the sugar lips dishing out sweet commentary, Pizza Hut would love to hear a line that won you over.

"Valentine's Day is all about cheesy pick up lines," said Pizza Hut Tweetologist Alexa Robinson. "As a southern girl, one of my favorites is, 'Are you from Tennessee? Because you're the only ten I see!' I'm excited to see what other people send in."

To help set the mood for sweet tweeting, @pizzahut has compiled some more favorites:

"Hope you know CPR because you take my breath away."

"Did it hurt…When you fell from heaven?"

"You must be tired. You have been running through my dreams all night."

"I have had a really bad day and it always makes me feel better to see a pretty girl smile. So, would you smile for me?
