If your weekend was anything like our weekend, you spent three days mewling like a kitten about the heat and canceling all plans to go anywhere at all. Not these four SFSU students -- Gil Hackel (singer-songwriter), Nate Maas (cinema major), Trammell Scruggs (sound engineering major), and Zhenya Warshawsky (literature major) -- who launched and completed their Labor Day Weekend mission -- to ride every single MUNI bus line from end to end. Its name: Operation MuniCon.

Starting from the Daly City BART station on Friday evening, and armed with nothing more than MUNI passes, carrot sticks and gorp, water, and Rock Star Energy cola, Operation MuniCon vowed to ride the buses for four days straight, with no taxis or cars to get from line to line, designated drop points for burrito pickup, and t-shirts upon which the numbers for completed lines were triumphantly scrawled. As they arrived on buses, they would announce, "MuniCon, signing on!" (SFist is so sorry we were too busy opening all the windows in our apartment and then searching the apartment obsessively for West Nile-carrying mosquitos to actually get out of the house and take any form of public transportation this weekend to witness this).

Results of the survey? The 49 was the grossest bus (thrown-up burrito). The longest wait was three hours, for the M Owl. (Three hours! Why do we even have "nighttime" service, then?) Favorite bus, the 29 Sunset (nice driver). Shortest line: the two blocks on the 89 from Forest Hill to Laguna Honda. The conclusion of the tour? The 76 Marin Headlands to Ocean Beach to watch the sunset. Reason for doing it? "It was basically free, instead of Burning Man, which costs $280 plus all the drugs."

MuniCon has announced that they plan to make their trek every Labor Day from here on out.
