I'm serious, actually. I was talking about this gender supply/demand issue in SF with my wife the other day and she observed that since baseball is a non-aggressive sport featuring high-status men, it serves a signalling function for single ladies that a bar doesn't.
No, there's a spot at Embarcadero & Harrison with an unobstructed view that seems to be very popular for taking photos with the bridge in the background, or just to stop and look.
After a game the trains are so crowded it's usually easier to walk the 1/2 mile back to Market street, so you've got several thousands going past there ~80 evenings a year. The last time we were there my wife referred to previous HN conversations about SF's social gender distribution and observed the abundance of single female giants fans.
Also, there's a Gordon Biersch right across the street, so that probably helps too...

It's on the way back to downtown from the baseball park; SF has done well this year; SF girls like baseball.

Are you getting the Bay Bridge confused with the Third St Bridge?

So people check in "at the Bay Bridge" when they're just looking at it from a mile away?
As an East Bay resident I am offended.
