1979 Del Taco Commercial

Description

[@MzClementine]

My husband was in a commercial for del taco. We can't find it anywhere. So when I was little my mother had recorded the Ghostbusters for me. On that recording was his commercial. I used to hit pause and kiss the TV. And say I'll marry you one day. Oh my gosh. Well it came true. I did wind up marrying him. I think it was his third date, we were having and he was telling me about some acting gigs that he had. And he was in a commercial for del Taco. I laughed and said I used to be in love with this fella on del Taco. He had blonde hair really short on one side long on the other. My eyes deceive me but are you him? You are aren't you? He said what did I do in the commercial? I said you rode behind like a buggy, and made a splash or a wave. You were on a pair of skis I think they were on roller skates and you were flying around in the parking lot. He said oh my God yeah. I literally threw my hands over my mouth and said oh my gosh. I'll tell you one day what I used to say. The day he asked me to marry him. I got choked up and said oh my God it came true. He said what do you mean? I said, with tears dripping down my face. I used to hit pause on your commercial and kiss TV and tell you I would marry you one day. Then I had to explain to everybody what I was talking about. We're together 22 years. In total married for 19. I'm getting teary eyed just writing about it. I want to find that commercial so bad. I want to say it was have a Baja blast. It was before del tacos sold out to the new Taco place it became I'm sorry I'm drawing a blank. I didn't have coffee this morning. I think it's time for a cup..

I worked at the Waxahachie, Texas location when it opened in 1979.

Oh shit

[@og-hi9895]

Was it like taco bell?

[@karenk6985]

I went to that location when I was like 11 and on a road trip with my family. LOL

[@patrickcarey191]

@@og-hi9895 Better in some ways - great grilled hamburgers... shakes, burritos were better than Taco Bell. Taco Bell had better marketing I guess.

[@snakeoi1sean]

I loved the Del Taco we had on base when I was in San Diego.

This ad is so American 😂😂😂😂😂 I love it.

[@frankdenardo8684]

I saw one in Antioch, California. I also saw restaurants in Stockton, Modesto, Merced, Fresno, Bakersfield, Sacramento, Fairfield. There are outlets all over Southern California, and in Arizona.

I agree with you. Raaar.

[@IMCcanTWEESTED]

The part where they put a scoop of fertilizer in the flour tortilla? Excremental!

[@LSnium]

Idk about you but Del Taco is disgusting, and their restaurants look so old and dirty, homeless vibes, Taco bell better.

[@IMCcanTWEESTED]

Damn...this makes me old. I remember when they were Naugles (Great burgers and fries) and turned into a wanna-be Taco Bell. Del Taco still serves those good burgers and fries, but now that Foodmaker (JITB) is acquiring Del Taco, I worry their product quality will become school cafeteria-worthy.

[@hbgriss]

Still a couple naugles in so cal 🤘🏼

It's interesting that Taco Bell gets ragged on but never heard anyone making fun of Del Taco.

Soon to be replaced with syntheticado. It's green...it sort of tastes like guacamole, but it will also harden like a polymer that makes a great brick mortar for residential hardscaping.
