Imagine how nice it’d be if we made this stretch of Lombard St pedestrian-only. (Sorry for the bounciness. Is there an app I could use to record it better?)pic.twitter.com/51ZCH08shy

I think it was a decades-long tradition. Organizers would ask the cable car operator to momentarily block traffic at the top of the hill, then everyone let loose. Sadly it doesn’t happen there anymore.

Embrrassingly, I have never seen this. Every year I have a new excuse not to go. :·/

I’m betting on the homeowners. Though I am sure the street gets just as much traffic and wear on a normal day.
