★ “It’s Time For the Media to Stop Telling People to Hate Bay to Breakers”

Uptown Almanac:

The truth of the matter is that Bay to Breakers is one of the events that define San Francisco as the fun and creative city that it is.  Take away Bay to Breakers, BYO Big Wheel, Hunky Jesus, SantaCon, the street faires, and all other events of the like and this city instantly becomes a whole lot more boring.  Where did all the San Franciscans go? We were up at 6:30am taking the 22 to Hayes St., drank a 12 pack of the cheapest generic beer on the shelf, waited in line for the portapotties with all the other San Franciscans, made a point of finding one of the six trashcans along the route to dispose of our trash, walked back to our house from Golden Gate Park, ate a few tacos, and fell asleep on our couch while watching Netflix.  C.W. Nevius calls it chaos and mayhem, I call it just another day in San Francisco.

Even though I HATED Bay 2 Breakers, Kevin pretty much nailed it at least for “stereotyped San Franciscan” I never road the 22 or ate tacos or drank cheap beer or attended SantaCon but there are people that do this.
