Amy, Eric, Scott and Nicole eagerly await the derby.	The jockeys arrive on horseback.	Assembly of the starting gate.
The float meanders up the Embarcadero. We even made a Muni bus divert course.	Oncoming traffic be damned!	The bugle calls us all to the race.
"Jockeys, to your stations!"	The rabbit anxious for the chase.	And they're off!
Amy and Scott compare the results of their betting strategies.	Ministry of Silly Walks or Ron Burgundy? You decide.	It aint easy being green.
The sacrifice of the tortilla.	San Fransicso's finest keep an eye on things.	Permission to come aboard, and drink your beer?
From the rejected costumes of The Phantom Menace	Cavemen or tiki?	More like Fred Flintstoned.
This is how all waitresses should serve beer: 10 at a time.	Boy that gorilla suit must have been hot.	One of at least four "super delegate" groups.
Crowd mass down Howard Street, with ominous fog creeping down the hill.	Mom, dad, can we go home now?	I have no idea.
No idea what the collection of flags was supposed to mean.	When in doubt, get as high as you can.	Steeeeeee-rike!
Don't want to know what was in the udder.	I think they actually had a working oven.	♫Everybody was kung-fu fighting♫
Who's the big winner? You are!	Nice Caddyshack reference.	Didn't someone do this last year? But where are the pink hot-pants?
Part of some big US-Soviet group, not exactly sure of the specific theme.	Uncle Ron here to lead the way.	Watch out for the Delta Chi.
Coming up on the Hayes Street hill.	Randomness.	Mini-tiki.
Niiiiice coconuts.	Climbing the Hayes Street hill.	Attack of the inflatable bear thingie.
One of the many garage bands playing on Hayes.	Awwww, puppy.	Which Renaissance artist was this again? Leonardo?
Jamming for the people.	If it's not Scottish it's crap!	Made it to the top of this hill!
Where's raptor Jesus?	Over the hill, and now the long descent into madness...	Two turn-tables and group hug.
With all the low-carb craze, Ronald has fallen on hard-times.	Also known as the "identity theft" costume.	Which way to the driving range?
Wake me up, before you go-go.	Winky...	...dinky
That little girl enjoyed blasting everyone with the super-soaker.	Klatuu Baratuu Drink-o	Ride 'em cowboy!
Lars and the not-so-real girl.	Sorry Mario, but the princess is in another castle.	Pretty impressive when you figure he's probably had 10 beers by this point.
Playing for the Lakers....Irwin Fletcher....He's 6'3"...6'9" with the Afro.	I got Pac-Man fever.	Is that a real stuffed dear-head?
Cannot escape the baleful gaze of the domo-kun.	The King lives! ...at the DMV.	And where there is one Elvis, there are many.
One last race...
