So I know you assholes will flood this thread with pics of Bears....but am thinking of flying to Frisco (I like to call it Frisco...I like to do that) in November for the Cal game and take the wife (shockingly she's female).

I have never been and was wondering what areas you guys recommend for a young married couple that has two young kids that don't ever get to do shit. Stay in Union Square...Fisherman's Wharf? That sort of thing.

    Might try the Cinch Saloon or Powerhouse if you can sneak out after putting the Missus and kids to bed.

    If you haven't been, Alcatraz Island is kind of interesting. Especially considering they might close it soon for tours.

    People will talk shit, but I like the Marina. It's right next to the Presidio and Golden Gate and has all the bars, restaurants and shops you could want in walking distance or a quick uber. It's essentially a young adult frat party, a lot of douche baggery and pretentiousness, but still a good time.

    Mission is pretty overrated and grimy, North Beach is pretty cool and right by Broadway where all the strip clubs are, if you two are into that kind of thing.

    You have to do Alcatraz, it's honestly the coolest tourist thing I've ever done. Shit I live here and I go back anyway.

    Marina is a good spot if you're not into crackheads or human shit. So maybe he fits into the 2% of the board that meet either of those stipulations.

    No, yes.

    It is only overrated if you don't like burritos and/or Guatemalan gangstas.

    I used to go to San Francisco for a conference every year and have seen a bunch of stuff there. Alcatraz is the only thing I think you should definitely do. The rest is wandering around a city and at your discretion. Fisherman's Wharf is a tourist trap, not to say you won't enjoy it and it is kid friendly. Golden Gate Park is a pretty good place to wander around. Union Square is where I always stayed due to proximity to the Moscone (conference) Center and if you want to go to expensive bars then it is a fine choice. That area reminds of me of Westlake Center for some reason. I never particularly enjoyed the Mission. China Town was always good for some food but not a lot to do there.

    LOL. But seriously, the feds should have just let them have it.

    Make Treaty with Sioux saying you can have all abandoned federal land on traditional Indian land. Alcatraz Island used by Indians for hundreds of years before white man. Federal government abandons Alcatraz. Indians rightfully move in. Feds fuck around hand wringing for 18 months then forcibly remove Indians. Feds fuck Indians again and do not honor the treaty. Go figure. Fuck the government.
    It would make a badass Casino.
    That is a legitimate idea.

    You know how many motherfuckers would play at a casino where Al Capone did hard time? Fucking genius.
    You put the tables right in the solitary cells.
