AllPosters would like you to load up on posters of World Series 2010 .
Here are the two shots I have from them. I would assume that these show Game 2 and Game 5, respectfully, but I couldn’t find the first one in the Game 2 section so I gave up.
But anyway, the thumbnail shots they have are a library in themselves.
The colors here are a little saturated for my tastes , but this certainly is a memorable scene:
Go Giants!

Well it’s still early but there’s already pandemonium on the streets of San Francisco over the Giants winning the World Series 4-1.
As you can see, spectators are already lined up, camped out . The parade and celebration will soon begin.
And Placido Domingo, the greatest opera singer in modern times , is in the house.

Our SFMOMA has an idea about the ideal viewing spot , but I don’t think anyone will be allowed up there but police snipers, prob:
“Clark” and “Lincecum” just came by BART:
If you have to watch over the office while your colleagues join the madding crowd, feel free to take in the action on UStream .
In the meantime, just crank up the Giants-themed smooth reggae from Michael Franti and Spearhead .
Congratulations, GIANTS!
¡Enhorabuena, GIGANTES!

Per Leanne Maxwell at SFist (San Francisco’s biggest and best blog) the Giants ticker tape parade starts at 11:00 AM on Wednesday, November 3rd, 2010 at Washington and Montgomery and, per President Larry Baer , the party in Civic Center will get started at around 12:30 PM.
You’ve just got to be there – the SFPD is expecting over 100,000 fans to be on hand . Deets below.

And here’s what the last Giants ticker tape parade looked like back in 1958:

That was then, this is now, on Haight Street near Ashbury. The cops just shut down the street:
Les mise-en-scene:
Some buses on Haight Street got rerouted, others just got stuck:
And some people had their own bus, like these fans on Sutter. Complete with light sabers, of course:
So things were pretty mellow around most of the town.
But the Mission was a different story:

You have earned this historic World Championship through your talent, determination and teamwork, defying the odds and bringing the entire City together throughout this remarkable season.
