Post Yule Pyre

For the 16th year in a row, Danger Ranger’s Post Yule Pyre took place tonight and once again dozens of Christmas Trees incinerated in a massive bonfire on San Francisco’s Ocean Beach. The cops tried to stop the tree burners, by parking a K-9 unit police cruiser in front of the the main entrance to the beach and driving by issuing verbal warnings, but the crowd of post-yule pyros prevailed with their quest to clear the Christmas Tree carcases from the streets of San Francisco and give them the proper cremation that they deserve.

UPDATE 1: Andy reports that someone was arrested a when they tried to burn more Christmas trees as the cops were putting out the fire.

UPDATE 2: Here are some Post Yule Pyre photos from Brian Walsh and a bunch more from other people on Flickr.
