San Francisco’s Great Pie Fight of 2009 [PICTURES]

sfweekly.com — "San Francisco tourists and commuters ran for cover Thursday afternoon as folks in formal wear launched pies at each other at the Powell Street Cable Car Turnaround. Attendees were asked to BYOP (bring your own pie) and forewarned that shaving cream would be more pleasant than the whipped variety."

    Yeah...I totally prefer the taste of shaving cream in my mouth over whipped cream.

  • MarkBrent, on 03/08/2009, -1/+20I wonder if all of them were only cream or some of them actually took the time and love to make a real pie.
  • Wazdinero, on 03/08/2009, -4/+19All girls present are a result of some of the men who weren't quite sure what BYOP (bring your own pie) meant.

  • dubhglais, on 03/09/2009, -0/+3I'm glad to see someone else hates this trend of non-linear web pages. I refuse to even look at them anymore.
  • ObamaYouth, on 03/09/2009, -7/+10Boring.
  • crescentfreshld, on 03/09/2009, -0/+3Reason #692 why it seems like it would be nothing but cool to move to San Francisco....
  • gilgamesh23, on 03/10/2009, -0/+2I moved here about two years, and the fun just never evar stops!!
  • charlie55, on 03/09/2009, -0/+2that is a weird thing to say. i meant to say "white people are ridiculous"

  • heresy_fnord, on 03/09/2009, -0/+2Oh noes!
  • aenima987, on 03/09/2009, -0/+2Shaving cream+ Pie tin!= Pie
  • inactive, on 03/09/2009, -1/+2I'm not gonna take an infinite number of ***** HOURS to cruise through 35 ***** pictures. SF Weekly can suck it.
  • SawButter, on 03/10/2009, -0/+1American Pie ?
  • Jacked999, on 03/10/2009, -0/+1Next: ethiopia's great cry fight
  • mandarin, on 03/10/2009, -0/+1Pillow fight a couple of weeks ago and now a Pie fight...
    Does the city pay for cleaning up these events?
  • inactive, on 03/10/2009, -0/+1That's a lot of fake pies, and a lot of fake hippies.
  • syn4690, on 03/09/2009, -0/+1It's good to know that all these people now have a future in the clowning industry.
  • fubar109, on 03/09/2009, -2/+2Why was #8 using shaving cream...
  • lewystud, on 03/09/2009, -4/+4almost as boring as your comment
  • 2pac4life, on 03/09/2009, -4/+4I love the Bay Area!
  • defectDS, on 03/09/2009, -2/+2Sadly, I don't think this is a joke.
  • Ductapemaster, on 03/09/2009, -3/+3Dude just because there are starving kids in Africa (who you seem to think would eat shaving cream...) doesn't mean that just because we are more fortunate than they are, we can't enjoy ourselves. It's not like all of America should sit around all day having a pity party for all of those less fortunate than us.
  • regicide, on 03/09/2009, -2/+2Awww missed it, I was just there last weekend.
  • snareguy17, on 03/09/2009, -5/+3Picture 4 girl is cute.
  • fsufanizzle, on 03/09/2009, -4/+2Girl you know it's true...
  • RIAAagent, on 03/09/2009, -8/+5Well there's a sideshow button.....if that helps.
  • Winkleman, on 03/09/2009, -12/+9a giant pie fight sounds like a fun time, even if it is in San Francisco
  • tehknotte, on 03/09/2009, -7/+2GAY WASTE GAY WASTE!
  • inactive, on 03/09/2009, -11/+3[Insert gay joke]
  • inactive, on 03/09/2009, -12/+2Typical San Francisco; make a huge ***** mess acting like kids whose parents left them alone too early and then leave it to tax payers to clean up after them.

    There's a kid in Africa who would have eaten the shaving cream, let alone a real pie. Allow me to pass along his "***** you".
