Giants Back on Top

The wait is over in San Fran. 15 years since the 49ers won the Super Bowl and 56 since the Giants won the World Series, "The City by The Bay' is back on top.

However Giants faithfuls needed to wait till nearly 4 am this morning to feel full effect, as the team did not return from Texas till then. Fans have longed for this title proven by the hand scrawled sign that read "56 years of Giants torture is over!"

However the celebration did turn criminal. SFPD reported 6 arrests as well as multiple smashed windows, including some of which at AT&T park, Home of The Giants. However this was not the most heinous of the situations. A video broadcasted on youtube last night showed a car driving towards a crowd who had lit a bonfire in the middle of the street. Unhappy rioters then surrounded the car and abused it till the point the windshield smashed.

All aside the police are now planning for the Championship Parade in which the Giants will most likely follow the same route as the team did when they had their "moving in" parade in 1958.
