Most people know Tuesdays are for tacos and if they didn’t know, LeBron James has made his love of the tradition well known on social media. Thanks to James’ weekly Instagram stories, Taco Tuesday might be as popular as it’s ever been, leading to the King trying to cash in with a trademark (which was denied.)
But Taco Thursday?
Los Angeles Dodgers’ star Cody Bellinger along with Joe Kelly might have thrown off the balance of power in the food universe after they dressed up as LeBron and a taco on a Thursday.

The Dodgers were taking part of the Major League Baseball tradition of rookie hazing for the final road trip of the season. However, LA took it a leap further and included veterans and organization members alike to participate.
It was a bold move but in the end, the King himself was approving.
Hey @Cody_Bellinger & Joe Kelly. 🌮@KingJames approves! #LakeShow x #LABleedsBlue pic.twitter.com/pGLuR1yYd2

“I was like, ‘you know what, it’s the Dodgers. Go ahead.” James told SportsNet LA on his reaction to Bellinger and Kelly’s tandem costume.
Now that Taco Thursday is a thing, it opens up a whole new world of possibilities. How about Taco Mondays, or Fridays? Why don’t we just have tacos every day of the week? You can’t stop progress.
