apologies if this comment has already been made, but--that's why they call it the zip line.

...it's been made directly above mine, in a sense

It's kind of insulting for the article to say it is unclear if it was a prank or an accident. Kid should be made to have **** sprayed on him with his mouth taped open.

When he heard about it, Bear Gyllis was upset that perfectly good drinking water was wasted.

Just so you all know, Fremont is closed to vehicle traffic and generally has several live bands ( sometimes big names ) playing for free down there. Parking sucks, but it's worth it.
I stayed on Fremont a few years ago while visiting family, and did not mean anything negative about Fremont but the crowds, lights and characters wandering around felt like Times Square of today to me. Times Square also was largely cleaned up but has its own element around, and also is largely closed to traffic. They closed part of Broadway to traffic actually as well here.

In regards to the story, its disgusting. Glad it was not puke from the zipline. That would have been WORSE!

Im a glass half full guy, what can I say.

It's better to be pissed on than pissed off.

Maybe he self-identified as a seagull. If it's what he feels, who are we to say otherwise. Don't be a hater!
