A slice of fun in NYC with Roger Federer

When Federer visited Scarr’s, he immediately ordered a regular New York pizza, but with a playful twist: he asked for Swiss cheese on top, a playful nod to his Swiss heritage. Interactions between Federer and the owner were friendly and brought a smile to everyone’s face. The owner laughed and jokingly said, “No Swiss!” This lighthearted moment showed Federer’s humble nature and ability to connect with people over something as simple as a slice of pizza.

In the UNIQLO ad, Federer took his passion for pizza to the next level by attempting to create a New York-style pizza with the help of the Scarr’s owner. He folded the dough with gusto, spread the sauce, and expertly added the toppings.
