    I don't know if anyone has a clip of the Chicken McNuggets dunk or a recording of the Unbeatable Rap Song.

    Yeah someone posted this during the season. it's very weird to me becasue I remember parts of the ad but I didn't realize it was Shaq and Hakeem when i saw it as a kid. I was 10 when it came out and without the jersey's I didn't recognize players other than Bird, Jordan, Pippen, Reggie, and Barkley (grew up in Indiana so the Bulls, Pacers, and Indiana born players were everywhere and then Barkley was just my favorite player).

    In 1995, at 79 cents, that's $3.95 for 5 double decker tacos.

    Now a days, there are several things on the new 79/89/99 menu like that.

    No clue, but I'm pretty sure tacos don't have pork nor alcohol in them.
