Home Run Could Mean Free Tacos
1 hour, 18 minutes ago

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - Barry Bonds could end up feeding the nation during this World Series.



Taco Bell is promising free tacos for the entire country if Bonds, or any other player, hits a target floating in a cove behind the right-field fence at Pacific Bell Park.


The 15-foot diameter target will remain in place through Game 5. Any home run that touches it during the three games scheduled at the park entitles everyone in the United States to a free taco coupon.


The company says it would pick a window of time on one day when people can redeem the coupons.


Of the 27 home runs to land in McCovey Cove since the park opened, Bonds has hit 21 of them for the San Francisco Giants. His team faces the Anaheim Angels on Tuesday in Game 3.


Taco Bell sponsored a similar promotion last year, offering free tacos to the country if the Mir space station (news - web sites) hit the company's 40-foot-by-40-foot target in the South Pacific.


Mir finished the day 0-1.

Lol.

Imagine, a few people go in to get their free tacos and then decide to have their full meal there...

Great marketing.

There's probably a better chance of Babe Ruth appearing at home plate..... Slowly walking to the pitchers mound..... Dropping his pants and laying a steaming hot terd on the rubber.... then vanish into thin air ......then a ball hitting that thing out there.


And taco bell can keep their nasty ass tacos..... I like some of their food.... but that dehydrated "meat" they use for the Tacos is pretty nasty.
