Usually, it's just the downtown pols emitting gas

The Chronicle‘s Monica Guzman reports on a mishap at yesterday’s Thanksgiving Day parade:

A woman watching the 56th annual Washington Mutual Thanksgiving Day Parade passed out after inhaling gas that was leaking out of a manhole at the intersection of Texas and Caroline.

She was transported from the scene with no serious medical problems, police said.

About 500 people were gathered at the spot when the gas began seeping into the air around 10:30 a.m.

That does not seem world-class.

Washington Mutual must be pleased to see its name so prominently featured in the news story.
