Mighty Taco Adventure Rules v0.2
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

These rules are pending approval of Taco Phil.

Your inclusion in festivities is pending approval of Taco Phil.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. RULES:

Teams are made of up to 4 people.

Each team member must eat a food item at each of the 16 Mighty Taco
Restaurants along the route designated by Taco Phil.

A food item is anything edible on the current Mighty Taco menu, except for
but not limited to drinks, condiments, plastic utensils. A side of beans
is a food item, cheddar cheese is not.

One of every item on the menu must be eaten by each team during the
adventure. This includes individual servings of everything edible listed
with the exception of combinations of drinks * drink sizes as well as the
super pack and the mighty pack. You must consume each of the 61 items
listed in section 2.

A team member is "OUT" if they fail to eat a food item at a stop.

The winning team is determined by the team with the highest number of
points at the end of the adventure.

Every team member will put a mutually agreed upon amount of US currency
into the pool at the beginning of the adventure in order to compete.

All scoring is subject to a ruling by Taco Phil.
