Alex Ovechkin Visits Arlington Fire Station, Delivers Pizza
The Capitals superstar was doing a promotion for Papa John's in the area.

ARLINGTON, VA — Arlington Fire Station 2 had a most unusual visitor on Thursday: Washington Capitals superstar Alexander Ovechkin.
Ovechkin was shooting a promo for Papa John's pizza at the fire station, which is located just down the street from the team's practice facility in Ballston.
"We love station visits," the Arlington County Fire Department tweeted. "This one though... TOP! Thanks for dropping by @ovi8. Come by anytime!"

"You wanna get in there?" one firefighter asks as Ovechkin admires the fire truck. He then eagerly got in the vehicle as a firefighter showed him how to turn on the lights.
