After 57 years of loyally cheering and impatiently waiting, San Francisco Giants fans finally got their wish when our team became the 2010 Major League Baseball champs. And boy, did we represent the orange and black, from the superfans to the drag queens to the drag queen superfans. If the enigmatically dark beard of closer Brian Wilson or the maroon-colored thong of outfielder Aubrey Huff didn’t hook the nation on San Francisco funk, the fans would have picked up the slack. Gigantes devotees caught everyone’s attention — including that of a Texas reporter who couldn’t help but be amazed by the fans outside AT&T Park getting high on life, among other things. What do you say team, how about two in a row?
