Time to take a trip down Memory Lane.

For you Taco Bell fans, the double decker might be a household favoriteby now. But in 1995 itwas fresh on the market, and it debuted with an unforgettable double-decker duoheadlining the campaign.

Feast your eyes on Shaquille O'Neal and Hakeem Olajuwon on a bicycle built for two riding through Central Park. When the ad campaign was released, Olajuwon's Houston Rockets had just swept Shaq's Orlando Magic in the 1995 NBA Finals to repeat as champions.

Later, Shaq would have "Taco neck syndrome" in Taco Bell ads when he was with the Los Angeles Lakers.
