According to the official website of Major League Baseball and Taco Bell, between the hours of 2 and 5 pm today (October 30th), Taco Bell will be giving away free Crunchy Seasoned Beef Tacos. This is part of their Steal a Base, Steal a Taco promotion in which they promised to give away one free taco per customer to everyone who came into the store if there was a base stolen in the World Series. Well, a base was stolen and so they are giving away tacos. Tacos that cost less than a dollar to buy. Oh well, Americans, we love our free stuff.

I think you mean the 30th, not the 20th.

I think things like this are kind of fun. I'm old enough to remember the fiasco for McDonald's when they gave away food for every gold medal won in the Olympics, and then the whole Eastern block boycotted.

Less than a dollar sounds about right for those tacos. They have less than 190 calories, so they're pretty small by American standards. See:

Gee, here in Colorado Springs those little gems have been upped to $1.04 per taco. Remember the $.29, $.39 $.59 promotion days? That's when you were paying for exactly what you got. Not so much at $1.04.

That extra 25 cents is for losing the World Series.
