No, there's a spot at Embarcadero & Harrison with an unobstructed view that seems to be very popular for taking photos with the bridge in the background, or just to stop and look.

After a game the trains are so crowded it's usually easier to walk the 1/2 mile back to Market street, so you've got several thousands going past there ~80 evenings a year. The last time we were there my wife referred to previous HN conversations about SF's social gender distribution and observed the abundance of single female giants fans.

Also, there's a Gordon Biersch right across the street, so that probably helps too...

So people check in "at the Bay Bridge" when they're just looking at it from a mile away?

As an East Bay resident I am offended.
