Taco Bell Sued for $42 Million Dollars

After spending $510 million on Chihuahua ads between the years of 1997 and 2000, Taco Bell is being forced to fork over $42 million to the original creators behind the crazy talking Chihuahua ads. From what we’ve gathered, the original ad company who presented the idea of the “Psycho Chihuahua” were rejected by Taco Bell, but then the restaurant later teamed up with another ad agency that ended up using that same Chihuahua. $42 million is a lot of tacos.
