Rainy Days are rare in San Francisco. When they do happen, people happen to have some really, really bad days. Some got soaked. Some slipped. Some wore slides…, some were underdressed. But they were all funny and hard to forget stories. The Galileo Press asked whose had worst rainy day experience.

“I was on a trip to NYC walking around and I didn’t bring an umbrella raincoat or rain boots so I was drenched all day long.”

“I had shorts on and it was windy and raining so the wind blew my shorts down because they were kind of loose.”
