Cristobal Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 150 years after Emperor Norton, San Francisco is still willing to go along with a good story in the name of making the world a brighter place for a poor soul down on their luck.

jaedmc Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 When I read they were going to do this a little while back, it sounded like it was going to be fun - but I did not think it was going to be that massive in scope. So many people. CAN'T STOP CRYING. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buy Me a Burrito Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 Indeed. I got misty reading about the coverage. People can be amazing sometimes. We don't realize it enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 On a positive note, Batkid is in remission. So hopefully he can remember this day for decades to come. 150 years after Emperor Norton, San Francisco is still willing to go along with a good story in the name of making the world a brighter place for a poor soul down on their luck. Indeed. I still vote we name the Bay Bridge after Norton I. It was his idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustJay Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 I read about the planning of this last week. It looks like they went above and beyond what I could imagine a city doing. God Bless the city of San Francisco. A classy move for a classy kick ass city! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin877 Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 Indeed. I got misty reading about the coverage. People can be amazing sometimes. We don't realize it enough. I looked at the Buzzfeed section on this. Restored my faith in humanity a little and made my "horrible not so good" a lot better. A good start to my Friday evening.
