this was our neighborhood last night after the giants won the world series. two texans and a phoebe went to celebrate with the crowd…i’m just glad that i got home 45 minutes before this happened, otherwise i would have been trying to drive through this with texas plates. i am pretty sure that would have equaled certain death.
