TACO BELL TOUR
The Madison area has nine Taco Bells. Seven in Madison, one in Sun Prairie, and one in Monona.
Because of Jason Bartlett's stolen base in game one of the MLB World Series Taco Bell gave out free tacos to America.
This is the story of two friends, Jon and Paul, and their quest to conquer all 9 Madison area Taco Bells savoring 9 free tacos.
3:46 pm - 534 State St, Madison - Our epic journey begins.
According to the official Steal a Base, Steal a Taco Rules, the free taco is supposed to be a Crunchy Seasoned Beef Taco. I was given a Volcano Taco by mistake. Just a little heat to kick start this adventure.
Jon's first bite. He was given the correct type of taco.
4:12 pm - 3002 E. Washington Ave, Madison - Taco Bell number 2
We hit up the drive-thru trying to save precious minutes. Taco Bell was only giving out tacos until 6:00 pm. We had to hurry if we were to accomplish this goal.
4:32 pm - 228 E Towne Mall, Madison - Showing off our third tacos.
4:48 pm - 2005 Mccoy Rd, Sun Prairie - Crunchy tacos are normally 89 cents. But not today.
Jon showing off his 4th taco.
We debated whether or not the Sun Prairie location was close enough to Madison to count as an area Taco Bell, but we decided we couldn't pass it up.
5:08 pm - Hwy 12 and 18 mile marker 265 - Our anticipation was building as we neared the Monona location.
5:14 pm - 100 E Broadway, Monona - The 5th Taco Bell was defiantly the fanciest looking one in the area.
Jon and I both like soft shell tacos better. This was the first Taco Bell we were given the option of choosing Crunchy or Soft. Jon is really savoring this one.
I, on the other hand, ate so fast I just couldn't keep it all in my mouth at one time.
5:29 pm - 1920 S Park St, Madison - Traffic on the beltline made us nervous we weren't going to make all 9 locations before 6:00 pm.
With 30 minutes left we decided the drive-thru might be faster then going inside. We were wrong. The Acura in front of us had a huge order slowing things down.
5:47 pm - 104 W Towne Mall, Madison - We litteraly ran into the mall grab our tacos. No time for walking. Thirteen minutes left and two Taco Bells to go after this one.
5:58 pm - 421 E Commerce Dr, Madison - Taco Bell number eight with two minutes left we waited for what would be our last free tacos.
Our last free tacos, both soft shell in the bag.
6:22 pm - 5001 Universty ave #200, Madison - The last Taco Bell and dispite our begging the casheir we were denied free tacos. Yet, to complete this quest we paid for our final tacos. They were delicious to the very end.
