Besides having to abide by a California state law that mandates clubs must stop serving alcohol by 2:00am, in most clubs the owners literally start "kicking out" the patrons at 1:30am, regardless of whether is a weekday or weekend and the exit scene is quite nasty. There is no current "entertaiment district" in the City of San Francisco that would extend the hours of operations for clubs to remain open perhaps until 4:00am on weekends. If San Francisco is to compete for tourism in a global economy, then it should start enacting laws more open and less "structured" and begin evolving as a major city should be. It's a shame a citiy like San Francisco provides a image of not being flexible and accomodating to it's own citizens and to the thousands of tourists from the world it receives. SAN FRANCISCANS WAKE UP

Sorry, but I don't see a problem here. We have no desire to become another Bangkok. San Francisco is first and foremost a business/professional city where people live and work. Tourism is definitely secondary on our priority list, we marginally tolerate it for a little extra revenue as long as we can contain it to reasonable hours in certain areas of town so its not a nuisance and doesn't ruin the natural peace and beauty of our environment. We have no wish to increase noise pollution, drunk driving problems, drug problems, ugly modern neon displays, and the like. So I'm sorry, but to be perfectly direct, we don't want to attract more party people to come here. If you are looking for an all night party, go to Vegas or Disneyland, please don't come to our home.
