SF was planted in the frosty gloom of the Southern Community Park for another Bastille beatdown. We were rewarded with one of the more glorious sunrise color shows in memory, particularly awesome on the return leg of the Usain Bolts (note: photo above is for illustration purposes only. Ours was actually a lot more impressive). As Shooter perfectly put it: you don’t get that in the fartsack.
