Colorado Buffaloes now have their own Taco Bell meal

Just a couple of years ago, people would’ve laughed at Taco Bell for even considering doing anything with the lowly Colorado Buffaloes football team, but then came Coach Prime, and now the Buffs have their own meal at the fast food joint!

The Buffs Box” features a cheesy gordita crunch, a beefy five-layer burrito, a Doritos locos taco, cinnamon twists and a large drink that comes in a collectible cup with a CU player on it, all for just $7.

The new meal deal is available at almost every Taco Bell in Colorado, except for those up in Fort Collins, because even cheap tacos wouldn’t be right covered in black and gold in Rams country.

In addition to the new box, every time the Buffs score a touchdown this season, Taco Bell will donate $1,000 to CU Athletics. Last season, the Buffs scored a TD 56 times, so if they can do that again, Taco Bell will need to sell a lot of tacos to cover the donation!
