Bay to Breakers: Booze, Butts and Lots of Portable Toilets

First things first: it didn't rain! Well, it did for a bit, but now it's sunny at Golden Gate Park. We'll be providing more complete coverage of Bay to Breakers, sponsored by Zazzle this year and containing something called "sobriety tents," but here's a first look at the proceeding, courtesy of Zoe Corneli.

Early reports indicate minimal, if any, enforcement of alcohol ban, although there don't appear to be any floats. Urinating in public does not seem to be the menace it has been in previous years, thanks to abundant porta-potties. Also, nudity continues to be a popular costume at Bay to Breakers, as are political outfits. Already one Osama (below) has been spotted; would imagine that there are quite a few Osama/SEALS this year, probably holding Budweisers. USA!
