Taco Madness 2009 ~ Sabrocho!

12:00 AM PDT on March 23, 2009

sabrocho

We're down the final 8, the elite, the Sabrocho. Controversy has plagued the tournament so far, with a strong anti-Tito's contingent, as well as those who felt the seeding of Cactus Taqueria and Tacomiendo were too low. In any case, we move on to the next round with the following matchups. In this round, all polls are open at the same time, and voting is open until midnight on Friday of this week. If you missed Round 1, please check here to see how we got to the Sabrocho.

However, this does not include any other fines related to equipment restrictions or lack of permits. This also means that while a vendor can’t be cited for vending in areas like the Hollywood Walk of Fame anymore, they can still get cited for other city regulations.
