The World Series 2010 is underway and and last night started off with a bang for the San Francisco Giants. The underdog SF Giants beat the favored Texas Rangers 11 to 7, and the San Francisco fans at the many bars and restaurants around AT&T Park went nuts.
This blogger skipped buying a ticket for the fun of going around from bar to bar and making the video blog above. The trip started at Momo's, then went to Tres Agave, then past Ironside, and finally wound up at a lively 21st Amendment.
According to San Francisco Police Officer Greg Shur, the crowd, with the exception of just two arrests, was well-behaved. It was a vastly different and more controlled, yet electric feeling for World Series Game One than for the NLCS or the NLDS before that. The 21st Amendment was packed and orderly, and funny.
There was some guy behind me who yelled like a weird animal. A high pitched KIYYEEEEEEEEE sound. Then there was the man with the "Beat Texas" sign. And there was a lot of beer. It's great to see the businesses around the ballpark pick up so much business from the World Series.
And that was just for game one!
