Bay to Breakers 2006—What’s the Plan?
May 9th, 2006 by some dudeBig Bird: “Did I get that right? Bay to Break-hers is on a Sunday this year? Nevertheless it is only two weeks away! Have you guys been scheming? Farm animals? Is the cart a barn? A hay bail? A cow? A tractor? There is some serious work to be done. What’s the plan?”
Indeed, there is serious work to be done. We’ve been talking about a farm theme for a while, and I think that’s what we’re going with. Here ye, here ye, our theme for this year’s Bay to Breakers is …
Boone’s Farm
Dress as a farm animal, a farm hand, a farmer, a farmer’s daughter, your favorite produce, a scarecrow, dorothy, a lion, a tiger, a bear, oh my!, a tractor, hay, a tornado, flat land, a pitch fork, a giant industrial potato factory, or anything else farm related. Everyone’s invited!
p.s. Bay to Breakers is on Sunday, May 21.

Works for me. I plan on scouring the cheap fabric stores in the Mission for some animal prints… My sewing days are over, but I’m pretty sure I can still pull together something slutty.

I like Armen’s idea. Reminds me of something I bought for my brother that we call the “Holy Cow.” Cow, because it reminds us of udders. Holy, because it is meant to dispense alcohol. Also holds Boone’s bottles. http://www.shop.com/op/~Six_Bottle_Shot_…
Where do we get a cow?

We’re thinking we could get a cow costume, run the tubes through the udders, and stuff it with paper and/or chicken wire to hold the shape. Or a big toy stuffed cow, if anyone can get a cheap one. Christine, check for cow-print when you go to the fabric store.
