It’s A Black And Orange Day Of Celebration!
Posted by Michelle Moquin on October 31st, 2012
Good morning!
First of all I want to congratulate our beloved San Francisco Giants for winning the World Series! And today, if you happen to be a Giants fan and living in the Bay Area, the celebration festivities are happening along with all the Halloween fun. It couldn’t be more perfect that our Giants’ colors are the colors of the Halloween holiday. So don your black and orange costume and begin your day at the Halloween Day ticker-tape parade celebrating the 2012 World Series champion Giants, starting at 11:00 AM, and continue into the ghoulish night partying with some of the scariest monsters, witches, and ghosts! San Francisco is full of them and the place to be! I HOPE to see some of you out and about!
For those of you who can’t watch the parade, just know the streets are going to be crazy and getting around might be challenging for some of you. So here’s something to help you get around:
SF Giants Parade 2012: Route, Date, Time, TV Schedule and More
The San Francisco Giants are ready to party like it’s 2010.
After knocking off the Detroit Tigers by a score of 4-3 in 10 innings to complete the World Series sweep, Bruce Bochy’s squad became one of world baseball champions for the second time in three years.
For hardcore baseball fans, that’s all that matters. Lesser fans, however, will of course be concerned with the parade that will celebrate San Fran’s triumph.
And honestly, can you blame them?
A parade is just a huge party in the middle the street. It’s a time to celebrate the hometown team that brought sports fans the ultimate prize. It’s a time to skip school. To skip work. Parades like this are a once-in-a-lifetime—or in San Francisco’s case, twice-in-three-years—opportunity, and if you’re in the area, you won’t want to miss.
So let’s take a look at everything you need to know about the giant mobile party.
The date and time were announced by none other than Mayor Edwin Lee:
Date: Wednesday, October 31
Time: 11 a.m. PT
TV Schedule: You can watch the parade live on KRON 4 or follow along live on theirFacebook feed.
Route
This year’s route has yet to be officially announced, but when the Giants won in 2010, they took the same parade route as the one the team took in 1958 when it moved to San Fran from New York.
So, this year’s should be similar to the following (via San Francisco Chronicle):
The parade will start “at Montgomery and Washington streets and go southbound on Montgomery to Market Street before continuing west on Market to Civic Center Plaza.” The parade ends on the steps of City Hall.
According to FOX40 News, it sounds as though that will be the route once again this year.
We’ll be sure to keep you updated as more becomes known about the official 2012 route.

Readers: This is it for today. Have a safe and Happy Halloween no matter where you are! And again, my best wishes to all and especially those who are so affected by Hurricane Sandy. It seems we are nearing the end of this horrific storm – I HOPE life gets back to normal soon.
Peace & Love to all.

Could Sandy postpone next week’s presidential election? Yes, in theory.
->White House still unsure about how the storm will affect next week’s election
->The President doesn’t set the date for elections, Congress does
->States must decide their own polling strategies in emergencies according to election regulations
->Contingency plans could lead to legal squabbles over final results in some states->
->Some of the most competitive states, such as Ohio and Virginia have felt the impact of Sandy
Will they, or won’t they?
