If Emperor Norton rides Muni, so can you

This dapper fellow is none other than Norton I, Emperor of the United States, original champion of “a bridge crossing and a tunnel to be built under San Francisco Bay.”

Actually, the dude in the photo leads Emperor Norton’s Fantastic San Francisco Time Machine, a walking tour of our fair city. We love that modern-day Norty takes Muni. We have to imagine that the OE would’ve taken public transit also.

h/t Muni rider Sharon Steuer: “Only in #SanFrancisco: Riding the #Muni bus with #EmperorNorton on his iPhone.”
