Overview

  • Hundreds lined up at Tacolicious in San Francisco on Feb. 5 for a look-alike contest celebrating the Puerto Rican artist before Super Bowl weekend.
  • Dozens of contestants in signature Bad Bunny-inspired outfits paraded, danced, and posed as fans waved Puerto Rican flags, browsed merchandise, and snapped photo booth pictures.

  • Organizers with Mission Lotería said the free event exceeded capacity, spilling into a street party with DJs and sing-alongs outside the venue.
