I'm not going to lie, I've always dreamed of owning my own restaurant and that place would serve pizza. Who doesn't love a delicious pizza paired with cold beer, good company, and some sports?

You can own your own pizza place that's been doing really well since 1970 in a town in Eastern Iowa. The only problem you might run into is paying for it. I'm not saying this place isn't worth that price but I don't know a lot of people in this town with that kind of money.

The good news is that this pizza place in Clinton isn't closing. What pizza place am I talking about and how much are they selling it for? Hold onto your socks.

Since 1970, Vitale's (1134 Camanche Ave.) in Clinton has been serving up their famous stuffed pizza to people from all over. Nunzio Vitale was the founder and in 1993 sold it to James and Lou Dell Bartlett and Kevin and Becky Krontz.

Becky's son Christopher is running the family business and Vitale's has never waivered from the delicious food and great atmosphere it has always produced.

Recently, a social media post from a real estate agent in the area went locally viral because it was a post of Vitale's listed for sale. Broker and owner of Lind Realty, Daniel Lind, says in his post that the turn-key and very well-known business is up for grabs.

The price tag on Vitale's is what shocked everyone on social media. The asking price: $6 million.

I'm not knocking the fantastic business at all. But man, my breath was taken away when I saw that price tag and my heart started to hurt thinking that Vitale's would be closing for good.

But I have some great news -- Vitale's isn't closing. In a comment on one of Vitale's social media posts, the business said this:

That's wonderful news! Whoever is the owner of Vitale's in the near or far future, just make sure you keep slinging that fire stuffed pizza with great service.
