PONDEROUS PACHYDERMS FROM THE GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH® HAVE FUN THINKING OUTSIDE THE BUN

Who knew elephants craved Taco Bell®?  While even a full to-go bag of Crunchy Tacos from Taco Bell® wouldn’t make a dent in an elephant’s appetite, maybe the largest taco salad you’ve ever seen will! 

Come out to the Frank Erwin Center Thursday, August 18 from 9:30AM – 11:30AM and see the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey® elephants enjoy a giant taco salad on their lunch hour outside the venue.  Majic 95.5 will be on site and Taco Bell® will be giving out coupons for one free taco to the first 200 people.  Think Outside the Bun for your lunch hour and come see some of the largest mammals on Earth up close!  It’s sure to be tons of fun!
