@tjfrombay: The case for ICON: the sea lions showed up in 1989 and never left. Free to watch, one of the most photographed spots in California. The case for TRAP: overpriced chowder bread bowls, souvenir shops, and Wharf crowds that turn parking into a sport. My take: the sea lions are free, the views are free, and you don't have to buy a thing. That's an icon. 📍 PIER 39, Fisherman's Wharf, San Francisco Tourist trap or SF icon — vote below 👇 Subscribe to my page and follow for more. #SanFrancisco #Pier39 #FishermansWharf #BayArea #SFDebate
