A giant parade in San Francisco

I've never been big on parades, but if it's for baseball then I support it.

    Robert, it's about time they won it! I've been watching this video from YouTube:

    It's the official John Fogerty Video for his hit single, Centerfield. I love the last spot on this one.

      GO GIANTS!!! Outstanding that we won the World Series, especially since the critics had written us off becuase they thought the Phillies would clinch it again.

         I haven't lived there for 15 years but when the Giants won I was really happy.

          I was almost late to work because Freeway 101 and other adjacent backstreets and smaller freeways were crowded with cars on their way to SF. I'm glad the Bay has something to celebrate about in such a massive way.

            I am > so GlAAAAD the San Francisco Giants won the 2010 World Series. I have been going to see the Giants since I was a little girl because we lived on Gilman Street where Candle Stick Park is located. I will always be a fan....I remember the days of Willie MCcovy, Jack Clark, Chili Davis....I rocked the Carolinas with my Giants Gear the whole week. I wish I was in San Francisco my hometown for the celebration but I was there in Spirit. I am so Glad my son got a chance to see this history!!! I will be forever grateful for the Spirit and dedication the San Francisco fans shown to our San Francisco Giants!!!

            Thank you sooo much
