This was the scene last night on Sutter and Hyde in San Francisco’s Tenderloin (aka Tender Nob, aka “Theatre”) District last night just after the New York Yankees won the World Series. With all the boisterousness, passersby could tell that some kind of mayhem was afoot even from a block away.
And then when the crowd started belting out “New York, New York,” well, you started to suspect that Yelp-rated Ace’s Bar just might have a New York theme.
“Welcome to the Bronx Zoo” juxtaposed with “Quiet Please“ - Click to expand:
Neon signs celebrating both the Yankees and the Mets:
Owners Scott and Barbi beseech you to “Get your ass to Ace’s”
“With inexpensive prices and the cleanest bathrooms in the city, Aces brings the unique vibe of NY to the laid back streets of San Francisco.”
So, when you pine for Fair Gotham, Get Your Ass to Ace’s post-haste.
It’ll soon become your little piece of 10001 in the 94109.

You know what makes you better than all those melon farmers out there? It’s the fact that you hang your hat every night in the City and County of San Francisco. That makes you special. To celebrate you, the California Academy of Sciences is offering free admission for you (and your neighbors). Just match up your zip code with the handy chart below, gather up the necessary proof of where you reside, and head on over to Golden Gate Park.
And the nice thing about this free admission program is that it probably won’t be as crowded as it sometimes gets on the third Wednesday of the month, when everyone gets in sans tariff.

Thanks, Bank of America.
