Ah, SPORTS! Gotta love 'em, am I right? Especially when they get you FREE TACOS!

On Wednesday, participating Taco Bell locations will be giving out free Doritos Locos Tacos as part of a “Steal a Game, Steal a Taco” campaign.

We all have the Golden State Warriors to thank for this one-day-only gift, because they "stole" Game 3 of the NBA Finals from the Cleveland Cavilers on their home court last week.

"The Golden State Warriors just stole a road game in the NBA Finals. That means free Doritos Locos Tacos for America," Taco Bell tweeted on June 6.

"This is the third time we've partnered with the NBA, and the power of our combined fanbase creates an exciting cultural moment around the Finals. We know one thing is for certain, everyone will be rooting for tacos," Marisa Thalberg, global chief brand officer of Taco Bell said in a press release.

Taco Bell first introduced "Steal a Game, Steal a Taco" in 2016, dishing out free tacos when the Golden State Warriors won Game 4 of the NBA Finals against the Cleveland Cavaliers. (Sorry, Cleveland.)

According to the promotional details, no purchase is necessary to obtain the free taco, but you can only snag one at participating Taco Bell locations on Wednesday between 2:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m. local time.

Consider this a delightful opportunity to consume free calories on a large company's dime.
