David Chiu might be making headlines -- he's the first board member in history to be elected to three consecutive two-year terms as president of the BOS, which is to say, like Farmer Ted, he's king of the dweebs -- but supervisor Eric Mar is winning hearts. Well, Richmond district hearts. See, the District 3 1 supervisor is giving away his tickets to Saturday's 49ers playoff game against Green Bay.
Mar wrote to Richmond Blog:
“The 49ers give each Supervisor tickets to every home game. Typically, I give mine away to local schools and community groups. This time, I wanted to honor the active participants here on the Richmond SF Blog! From the arts and nature updates to the changes of businesses and streetscapes, this website serves as a vibrant hub of the neighborhood.Your participation here helps build community and provide useful insight to our community. So, good luck getting the tickets- I am sure the 49ers will represent us well this Saturday!”
But. Here's the rub: you must live in the Richmond District (94118 or 94121, yo) in order to be eligible. Enter here, Richmond dwellers.
