Santa takes over San Francisco!

Danny, JD, Ben, Davy and Mike E are the Santas!

Santa took over the city on Saturday with Santacon/Santarchy 2008. We all picked up our Santa costumes at Walgreen’s (a big $14.99) earlier in the week. Saturday morning we all met at my place to get dressed in our big red suits and headed over to Ross’s place for peppermint schopps/shots. At 11:30 we all met up at Pier 39 for some HO HO HO with our fellow Santas. The Pier 39 rent-a-cops were real up tight about everyone boozin’ and poured out some of our beer, but no worries, we had plenty more. The first stop was Hooters where Santa ate wings and drank pitchers. Next it was off to Kennedy’s & International Sports Bar for more pitchers and window shenanigans and then O’Reilys for Irish car bombs. That’s where we lost the group and proceeded to go on a Chinatown bar crawl to Mr. Bings, Bow Bow Lounge, Grasslands, Red’s Place and Buddha Bar before calling it a night after a long day. Santacon was great for the second year and we’ll definitely be going next year!

The first night in the city we spent working on our joweling skills and then headed out to the mission stopping by Delirium & Casanova with Davy.

A little hungover the next day, we started Scott’s bachelor party in style with breakfast at Mama’s. About half way through our wait in the long line of tourists, we had a San Francisco star sighting when Kate Hudson & Lance Armstrong got out of a cab to wait in line as well. It didn’t take them very long to realize the wait was like an hour and a half, so they took off, but it was still crazy to see them.

After breakfast we began the party with indoor skydiving at iFly. Ended up flying for a total of 2 minutes, going about 100 MPH and falling a total of 1.6 miles. Watch the video below to the tune of Pogo by Digitalism.

Geeked up on the high of flying we headed back to the city and walked up Embarcadero over to Pier 39, the wharf and then started drinking on my roof. Davy, Jeff, Amy, Sonya, Chrissy, Kellen and Sean came over and Scott started taking his first shots. It wasn’t long before we were buzzed and off to La Rocca’s. A jager shot and a beer later we we’re off too Maggie McGarrys where everyone started dancing. The jager shots kept coming and Scott kept making funnier and funnier faces.

The next day we got all the tourist stuff done like walking up Lombard, seeing Ghirardelli Square and the Golden Gate. We all forgot to wear sunscreen and ended up paying for it the next couple days with blisters.
