@sacca I was born, raised in public schools, and didn’t leave SF until I was 40. I still have a place there...my mom lives there. The problem with SF is that there aren’t enough San Franciscans. Daly, like many supes, treat SF like a political experiment. It’s never about the people.

@millfieldsports @JohnmyMacJr Shhhh….wait to you see the final being played in New York, I mean, New Jersey…

@UziCryptoo @varneybe I bought my 1st home in SF when I was 23…in 1987. Technically a Boomer. I made $10k/yr. The house was $140k…the rate was 11%.

I had saved money for the down payment for 11 years…every job I had, including paper routes went to that bank acct. I was pretty boring to be around.

@ThrillaRilla369 If you’re gonna be ugly, at the very least, be decent…

@SonoranDC @BrianPe55516403 @ChrisMartin1961 Boomers are just turning 80 this year (I’m from the last Boomer, 1964)…so that big chunk of 80+ are from that previous generation…

@yetske1 @SonsofJohnnieLe In, 1976 I got a Johnny Bench home run by not moving from my seat…everybody rushed to the fence, the ball hit the concrete and landed in my lap…I was 12.

@SonsofJohnnieLe Curious, who looked for the Chocolate Malt right away? Not on the list, but I guarantee you the vendors were out there…along with the smell of cheap cigars in general admission.

@Ripamaru @RetroBayArea @SSF_Fog32 Is this Randy Cross?

Season tickets until 1995…9er games to this City kid in the 70’s/80’s were a strange place. Lots of Bill Walsh look-a-likes sitting around long tables with tables cloths…and yes, white wine.

And the rest of us with coolers, hibachis, and a football or 2

@mergerguy @KATYSaccitizen I’ll just throw a few more clear ice cubes into my cocktail….no biggie.

[Carlos Martinez @cmart5]

@ronsterd89 Yes

[Carlos Martinez @cmart5]

@td_nash @HawkEmDownChris Mine too…coming from a SF Giants fan since 1968 #5 was the greatest catcher I ever saw in person…

[Carlos Martinez @cmart5]

@ashleymayer I can see my high school (1978-1982 Mission High)…6 bus rides a day (round trip), good times.

[Carlos Martinez @cmart5]

@Bruce_Jenkins1 @Mr_Husky1 I thought it was a joke, it was so easy.

I scored 100 out of 20, since I’m pretty sure this list was made by someone born in a year starting with the number 2…

[Carlos Martinez @cmart5]

@MauiThomas @KevG163 Same…as far as having the ticket for years, and then losing it. I think I still have the tickets from 88 and 89 somewhere…along with the World Series tix in 89.

I was exactly one week from my 18th birthday, a senior at Mission High…now a week away from 62. I need to lie down.

[Carlos Martinez @cmart5]

@fopminui Listen to this singer…he sounds better than Sinatra…ummmm, no he doesn’t.

[Carlos Martinez @cmart5]

@JRipz1789 @Lobs_All_Day Only Ditka could do that…even then, like if you take way his arms and legs, it would still be close. #SNL
