Fisherman’s Wharf is one of the biggest tourist traps in San Francisco. A great place to buy a jacket with “SF” embroidered on the breast over an image of the Golden Gate Bridge. Some of the old Chinese guys at the electrical supply outlet wear these, but for the most part you don’t see them on locals.
I ended up down there last night, I have two house guests in town. I caught up with them after work at a bar where they were drinking cognac with two crab fisherman. This was just the beginning of a very weird evening.
They showed us their boat (figure one) and we played pool at some other bar-high stakes pool against some professional skateboarders who knew the bar tender. The captain of the boat killed them even though he’d run his hand through the pot winch (figure two). He’d fashioned a bandage for his stitches with duct tape. (again, figure two).
