“Steal Tacos” During the NBA Finals
If you’re an NBA (or MLB) fan, you’re probably familiar with Taco Bell’s penchant for handing out tacos during high stakes games. If you’re not a fan, you can still get yourself a free taco as part of the Steal Game Steal Taco promotion if you can bring yourself to pay attention.
Here’s how it works: The NBA Finals kick off Thursday, May 31st and can run until Game 7 on June 16 if Game 7 is required. If one team wins a game on the other team’s court, all Americans in America win free Doritos Locos tacos . In this case, you can pick up the tacos on June 18 from 2 pm to 6 pm while stocks last. If you are registered on the Taco Bell website or app, you can order and pick up all day long (no delivery).
If you’re wondering what the hell Doritos Locos Tacos are, the Taco Bell website says it tastes like Crunchy Taco – just like its top version – but with a shell from Doritos tortilla chips “.
Whether you find pure joy in this mixture may depend on which team you root for. I speak from (somewhat painful) experience, which Taco Bell kindly reminded me of in a press release:
Taco Bell’s first “Steal the Game, Steal the Tacos” performance was in 2016, when the Golden State Warriors “stole” Game 4 of the NBA Finals against the Cleveland Cavaliers, winning free Doritos Locos to everyone and starting a new taco tradition. for years to come.
That tradition continued last year with the same two teams in the NBA Finals and the Golden State Warriors stealing Game 3 when they were away in Cleveland.
I’m from Cleveland, so you can trust me when I say that free tacos do little to ease the pain of home court defeat in the NBA Finals. However, I am not vindictive, because in the end everything worked out well for us in 2016 (we are not here to talk about 2017 or 2018).
