Everyone has a different vision of what a ‘perfect taco’ looks like. Some people prefer them loaded up with toppings and the protein varies from beef to pork to poultry to seafood. I’m not here to litigate what the perfect taco is (it’s al pastor) but I’m here to laugh at how pathetic this offering from the Miami Marlins is for Taco Tuesday…
The Miami Marlins debuted what was meant to be a great deal for Taco Tuesday. It includes a ticket to a game, 2 tacos, and a beer for just $25. That’s a steal to see a Major League Baseball team but then they foolishly included a photograph of the world’s saddest tacos in the press release.
It’s hard to even call these tacos because really they’re just a tortilla, a spoonful of shredded pork, and a tiny sliver of pickled onions. This is a one-bite taco at best. You could probably take down both in one bite and still have plenty of room to chew.
Twitter did its thing and roasted the Miami Marlins for their sad Taco Tuesday promo that actually would’ve gone great if they’d just included a better picture of tacos…

Queue the ‘what are THOSE’ thoughts in your mind… And as I’ve said above, they got roasted pretty good on twitter in the quote tweets and replies.

I'm going to assume that the beer can is 1/3 full of beer…unopened

Does Don Mattingly's salary come out of the cuts they made to the taco toppings budget? Toppings-to-tortilla ratio in shambles. That first bite is gonna be all dry tortilla. https://t.co/tj0p8v2KSt

I’m not huge on overloading my tacos with toppings but this is pathetic to me. Throw some salsa on there, some additional veggies, anything! Or replace those “tacos” with another beer and sell the ticket + 2 beers and it becomes one heck of a deal from the Miami Marlins.
