Steal a Base, Steal a Taco?

Irvine-based Taco Bell Corp. announced this morning that it will give a free taco to "everyone in America" if any player steals a base during the 2007 Major League Baseball World Series, which--as usual--won't include the Dodgers.

The item at stake is the crunchy beef taco valued at 77 cents.

Here's the particulars: If a base is stolen in games one or two, the free tacos will be available on Tuesday, Oct. 30. If a base is stolen in games three through seven, the tacos will be available on Tuesday, Nov. 6. Consumers must visit a Taco Bell between 2 p.m. and 5 p.m. on the redemption date.

And no: company officials say you can't have more than one for free.

    I think that the promotion is a great way to deceive the public.

    I live in Richmond, VA and none of the Taco Bells have knowledge of the program nor are they participating.

    This means that not "everyone in America" will get a free taco.

    I think this is very deceptive should be clearly defined on the broadcast.
