While I'm a big (and fat) supporter of the Taco Bell dining experience, there is no substitute for the "All you can eat" for 3.89 aspect of the challenge. We all want more opportunities for kids, and by making them pay "buy the taco" we are essentially cutting kids from the opportunity to compete. Pretty basketball-minded if you ask me.
As the originator of the first Post State Taco Eating Championship, held at the famous West and Central location, I failed to present a proper trophy to the winning team. If I can get a commitment from no less than six teams this year, there will be a trophy for the champion eater and championship team this year! A prize will also be given to the winner of the old-timers bracket.
Mark your calendars for March 8th at the West and Central location. Starting time~TBA.
