Interesting:

I didn't realize there was ever a time to fly it that way. I'll make a leap of faith and say that wasn't the case here.

Maybe they were distressed over outrageous deals!?!

I've never eaten at Taco Bell without immediate dire distress.

 

[Rasczak]

Even as a nonUS-Citizen I would do the same!


BTW Great Tacos, miss them out here in European Mainland...

Taco Bell does not make tacos. They make filth. Even the horse meat tacos at the taco stands in reynosa(tx/mex border town) are real tacos and better tasting.

@shnugg Good call on the flags too.

So you took that picture yourself?

 

[Schnugg]

So you took that picture yourself?

Yes. But did not eat there...instead went next door to Boston Market with the wife and kids.

Most likely it was wind that did this from a recent storm we had. Of the six flags on their roof. Five were in similarly sad shape.

Utterly pathetic by Taco Bell..... I recently just saw the movie "Super Size Me" and it really pissed me off that people knew the Big Mac jingle better than the national anthem. :icon_rage

No one is immune from screwing up. If the Marines can invert the Canadian flag at the 1992 World Series it's a wonder the poor Taco Bell employees didn't hang the flag vertically. Give them a break it was a mistake.

You can be damn sure the marines wouldn't hang the American flag upside down

 

[snizo]

still pretty embarrassing...

 

[bunk22]

Pathetic. Where was it taken......meaning what city and did you find out as to why it was done. Two upside down flags is more than a mistake I think.

If you take into account Schnugg's comments about a recent storm and the fact that the flags--if reflected about the horizontal axis--are at the correct orientation and precisely at the top of the flag poles it's clear that the flags just came loose from the top of the pole. Although I'm sure Taco Bell has some sort of liberal bias associated with their double decker taco supreme.

[Slammer2]

ahh but I bet those bastards cut the loop at the top so that way they'd tear in the wind.

/end conspiracy rant

 

[Cobra Commander]

This kind of thing would never happen at a Rubio's or Filliberto's.

 

[JBM]

Chipotle would never do anything like that....

 

[Rasczak]

Rubio's or Filliberto's.

what's that?
