The Red Sox won Game 1 of the World Series last night, beating the Dodgers 8-4. That’s a big deal for everyone in Boston . . . but for everyone else, the big story was: FREE TACOS.

Taco Bell was doing one of their promotions where the first base runner to steal a base in the World Series would be deemed this year’s ‘Taco Hero’ . . . and everyone would get free tacos. It’s the seventh year they’ve done it.

Well, MOOKIE BETTS of the Red Sox didn’t waste any time. He stole a base in the first inning . . . securing a free Doritos Locos Taco for everyone in America.

That means YOU get a taco . . . and YOU get a taco . . . and YOU get . . . okay, okay, you get my point.

You can redeem your free taco on Thursday, November 1st, by visiting any participating Taco Bell location between 2:00 P.M. and 6:00 P.M. local time. No purchase is necessary . . . you just simply ask for a free Doritos Locos Taco.

(If you didn’t witness YOUR new TACO HERO, here’s the video.)
