Taco cannon coming to University of Nebraska Omaha hockey games

A taco cannon is coming to the University of Nebraska Omaha's new hockey arena.

It's a match made in sports heaven: a taco cannon is coming to the University of Nebraska Omaha's new hockey arena.

Repeat: Stadium cannons, previously renowned for sending t-shirts into the stands, will be shooting out tacos instead.

Presumably, "taking a taco to the face" is a nice way of saying "fans will enjoy eating this taco." The last thing sports needs is taco-related injuries.

• Jameis Winston says he got 'hooked up' with crab legs, didn't steal them

Another question: will the tacos stay wrapped long enough to reach the upper limits of the cannon? Mavericks fans sure hope so.

Not sure what a taco cannon is, but sounds glorious “@UNOmaha: You're reading correctly: taco cannon at new arena. https://t.co/8Er2Rk1MXb”

There are game changers and there are freaking game exploders. I don't care about t shirts, but food cannons? #want https://t.co/LxdZSKo1ew
