This Year's Carnaval Theme: "Harlem Shake"
— By Kevin Montgomery (@kevinmonty) |

In 15 seconds, 200 white people in banana suits dancing like they're at a Limp Bizkit concert will suddenly appear.
After all the hoorah about Carnaval's troubles a couple months back, I decided to poke around their website to see how the festival was holding up. This is what I found:
This year’s theme is Carnaval Harlem Shake, with 8 city blocks in San Francisco’s Mission District bursting with music, dance, and exotic food from the many countries that celebrate Carnaval.
I was really pulling for a Grumpy Cat theme. What a let down.
