A LITTLE

BATHROOM HUMOR

WHY YOU SHOULD NEVERBELIEVE EVERYTHING YOU

READ IN A

CAMPAIGN MAILER

OR

The SF Rec and Park Department wants

to bulldoze all the grass at the Beach

Chalet Soccer Fields and put in 7 acres of

artificial turf and 150,000 watts of

stadium lighting --- destroying the habitat

and beauty of the western end of Golden

Gate Park, next to Ocean Beach.

This environmentally-

damaging project is budgeted

at $14 million, including a

$475,000 restroom

renovation!

Wow!

Must be some restroom!

Didn’t I just get something in

the mail about that restroom?

Where is that

stack of

campaign

mailers . . . . .

Here is the campaign mailer!

What a scary looking place!

No wonder no one “wants to use” it ---

BUT WAIT ---

we were just out at the fields, AND…

This is what the restroom looks like today!

What happened?

The restroom

today.

Photo from

the campaign

mailer!

W T F ??????

Was the restroom on the political flyer

caught in a time warp?

This could be scary – go into a restroom

today and end up in 1998 – or whenever

that photo was taken. . . . .

Hey – if that restroom

does time travel, AND

if I were to use that

restroom and emerge

(refreshed), would I

also be years younger?

Me – Contemplating life

choices if I use the

Beach Chalet restroom.

Decision made – I’ll “go” for it …….

Me -- after using

the Beach Chalet

restroom.

Pretty cool, huh!

Like, totally

awesome!

This could work – and what a great revenue

generator for Rec and Park!

THE

BEACH CHALET RESTROOM EXPERIENCE-YOU NOT ONLY FEEL YOUNGER --

YOU ARE YOUNGER!

OK, calm down.

With my new, younger

brain, it occurs to me

that perhaps there are

other reasons that no

one “wants to use”

that restroom.

Hm-m-m-m

What could it be?

Hey, let’s all think about this hard!

Are you thinking about this?

Eureka! We have it!

Could this be

the reason

no one

“wants to

use” this

restroom?

Let’s look at

this sign more

closely --

Now we know!

No one “wants to use”

the restroom because –

THEY CAN’T GET IN!

. . . . Unless Rec and Park

unlocks it for them.

. . . . Unless you have a

permit.

. . . . . And for adults -

Unless you have paid for

a permit.

SF Rec and Park – always creative with

ways to squeeze every penny out of our

[used-to-be-public] park system and

park users --has come up with a new

policy for revenue generation -

* PRESENTING THE *

BEACH CHALET RESTROOM EXPERIENCE

Pay to Pee (or “GO” somewhere else…..)

(And if you don’t

have the funds or a

permit, there is

always Ocean

Beach…..)

MORAL:

Campaign literature can say ANYTHING!

FACT: The Beach Chalet Fields (and the

restroom) can be renovated with real

grass and NO stadium lighting for a few

can be used to fix up fields for kids all

over San Francisco!
