'Roid Rave: Celebrating Bonds At Justin Herman Plaza
Photo taken by Jer in the SFist Eye-in-the-Sky Chopper
If there's a widespread contingent of San Franciscans that feel Bonds is a cheater unworthy of praise, that sure wasn't reflected in the celebration down at Justin Herman Plaza today. Music, tons of fans in the orange and black, Old people, young people, tall people, most in ballcaps. Plenty of police to ensure nobody gets injured should a fan go into a 'roid rage. All of this to honor the guy that broke a long-standing home run record.

The last time we saw this many people in one place in the Financial District it was because of free food.
The throngs of people had plenty to do . . . push each other, listen to music over the loudspeakers . . .
. . . and thrill to a large screen projection of Barry Bonds' exploits. My, that's a large head.
