Taco Bell All-Star Legends and Celebrity Softball Game features terrifying lack of legendary tacos

This was just for fun, after all, and the way MC Hammer hacked his way through batting practice before the Taco Bell All-Star Legends & Celebrity Softball Game made you wonder whether his obliques would hold up. Thankfully, they did, and Hammer, the one-time Oakland A’s batboy and San Francisco Giants tryout hopeful, had his opportunity to play on a Major League Baseball diamond. He even got to trot around the bases after a first-inning home run.

The article lists a slew of celebrities and former baseball players that participated in the Taco Bell All-Star Legends & Celebrity Softball Game, but not a single Taco Bell Legend or Taco Bell Celebrity. Obviously the foremost Taco Bell Legend, Glen Bell, is not around to bat cleanup (RIP), but what about Joey Porter or Charles Barkley?  What about Denise, the all-time greatest Taco Bell employee? The Chihuahua? Anyone?

I hereby declare shenanigans.

  1. They could have at least had the taco sauce race for some “in-game” entertainment. The All-Star equivalent of mascot races IMO…

    Tragedy, I say.

  2. No more Taco Bell references. Requeiscant in pace, Heath Taco Bell, Gordita Beckham, Emiliano Frutista Freeze and Cinco, the Chorizo in the Brewers’ sausage race.

    McDonalds, it appears, paid a lot of money to sponsor the game. Long live Keith McDonald, Mark McRib and Angus Deluxe Roy.
