It bears mentioning that the best part of the celebration was all the Posey/Lincecum action, after an awkward season where they really didn't play much together, and played mostly terribly when they did.

Look at how they fit together.

I'm flying out late tomorrow night, heading to San Francisco for Wednesday's World Series parade. I'm only going to be there for 24 hours because I have to be back at work on Thursday, but it will be worth every chaotic moment. I regretted not going up there in 2010, and I don't think you can realistically count on your team winning the WS every two years, so. Off I go.

I can't wait to see Tim in a shower of ticker tape, in a city that I love, surrounded by other fans in their black and orange. On Halloween! It's so perfect.

!!!!!!!!!

I WAS AT CIVIC CENTER AND OMG I STILL CAN'T GET OVER IT

I might have class during the parade but I'm gonna try to find some way to go again this year!

Did you make it to the parade? I was not a fan of putting the players in convertibles rather than streetcars, sigh. Was very hard to see much from my vantage point.

Yes! I got to Market & Sutter at a little around 6am so we were able to get a front row view. Which was a huge thing for me because I'm short and I always have to tip toe over people but not this time! Lots of waiting and grogginess, but it was so worth it. I was hoping they'd be in cable cars too - I know Brian Wilson was in one though.
