I think it is great that SundayStreets will be bringing the World Cup to the sun deprived residents of the Mission, but I can't help but wish they were showing it Dolores Park again this year:

* Little known fact: whiny people blame the 2006 showing of the World Cup in Dolores Park as the major cause of the park's modern day popularity.

I could definitely see why people would whine about that. We'll see if 17th and Harrison doesn't get all NIMBY now, too.

I think it was actually when Fugazi played in the park.

That Fugazi/Sleater Kinney show was the greatest Dolores Park day ever. I don't think it got ridiculously crowded until 2006-07 though.
